"Well I believe this particular Social war is lost But you can carry on soldier. Good luck in your fight." Yeah, well, speaking for myself, this is one "soldier" who will never pretend there's anything normal about perversion.
If you have chosen to give up and go along with the twisted delusion that two women abusing one another with instruments is "marriage", you're part of the problem.

Averting eyes doesn’t work when the queers get the legal system on their side (which they do) and force sodomy instruction in schools, open sex acts in parades, queers renting your bed and breakfast, queers wanting wedding photos and wedding cakes, and the like. Try to avert your eyes then, and it’s a hate crime.

Clinton/Rodham politics.
“In 1992, H[uman]R[ights]C[ampaign] endorsed a presidential candidate for the first time, Bill Clinton.”
wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Rights_Campaign
“The Human Rights Campaign’s leadership includes President Chad Griffin.”
wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Rights_Campaign
“Griffin got his start in politics volunteering for the Bill Clinton presidential campaign, which led to a position in the White House Press Office at the age of 19. Following his stint in the White House and his graduation from Georgetown University, he led a number of political campaigns advocating for or against various California ballot initiatives, as well as a number of fundraising efforts for political candidates, such as Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.”
wikipedia.org/wiki/Chad_Griffin
“In August 2007, [Hillary] Clinton participated with other Democratic presidential primary candidates in a forum on LGBT issues hosted by the Human Rights Campaign and Logo. When responding to questions regarding same-sex marriage, Clinton said she would move to repeal the third section of the Defense of Marriage Act,[182] which federally defines marriage as the union of one man and one woman.[183] However, she also said that she remained opposed to same-sex marriage as a “personal position” and that she strongly believed that whether same-sex marriage should be legalized should be left to the individual states to decide.[184][185] Clinton reiterated these positions several weeks later during an interview with Ellen DeGeneres shortly after an Iowa judge had ruled that a state prohibition against same-sex marriage was unconstitutional under Iowa law.[186]
Before its repeal, Clinton had said that she would, indeed, seek to repeal the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy.[187]
On March 18, 2013, Clinton, in a video posted on the website of the Human Rights Campaign, came out in favor of allowing same-sex couples to marry “personally and as a matter of policy and law”.[188]

Can’t leave Chelsea out:
“Speaking to the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s inaugural conference, the former first daughter spoke about the “incredible progress” the LGBT community has made in 2013.

Hmmmm.... and then there’s this:
“Last year, [Daniel]Loeb launched a new initiative with Paul Singer and the Human Rights Campaign, America’s largest LGBT civil rights organization, designed to protect LGBT rights globally in the face of increasing discrimination.

Former Southern Baptist:
“Bill Clinton, former President of the United States. Raised Southern Baptist, but left the Convention due to disagreement with its conservative positions.[4] Working with Jimmy Carter to conduct “Celebration of a New Baptist Covenant” meeting of over 30 liberal Baptist denominations and organizations in the US and Canada, which was held in Atlanta, January 30—February 1, 2008.[5][6]”

Following this money trail is going to be very interesting.

“[AR Rep Tom] Cotton, a farm boy from Yell County, Ark., who carried his district by nearly 20 points last year, has not officially announced his candidacy, but he is fundraising aggressively. The conservative hedge-fund billionaire Paul Singer and former Romney foreign policy adviser Dan Senor last month hosted a fundraiser for him in New York City that hauled in over $100,000 from high-dollar Republican donors including Sheldon Adelson and his wife, Miriam.”

However, according to Human Rights Campaign re: Tom Cotton (I think this was his 2012 stance)...
“Strong families also depend on strong marriages, and I support the traditional understanding of marriage as the union of one man and one woman. I also support the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and I will defend its constitutionality because President Obama has abandoned his duty to do so in federal court - an extreme position rejected not only by President Bush, but also by President Clinton.”

But by March 2013...
“Rep. Tom Cotton, a Republican, denied an interview request.
“He doesn’t have a lot to say on that topic,” said his spokesman, Caroline Rabbit.

Thomas Sowell once wrote that “Homosexuals were on their strongest ground when they argued that what happens between consenting adults is nobody else’s business. Now they want to make it everybody’s business by requiring others to acquiesce in their unions and treat them as they would other unions, both in law and in social practice.”
To: Olog-hai
They view themselves as freedom riders and likely just as leftist as the original bunch was
They would die for a martyr(s)....literally
Maybe they can make one up like Shepherd...
Younger folks down here are no different about homosexuals much than anywhere else
They are waiting money
Money could be spent on twinks for Roland Emmerichs pool parties

In their case, the “riders” part of the phrase “freedom riders” has a whole different meaning.

16 For whatever reason, (my observation only), people seem to be more accepting of women homos than men homos. It is an interesting observation. Going by the academic numbers, homosexuals comprise ~3% of the U.S. population. The homosexual men outnumber the lesbians by ~ a 2:1 ratio. The strident homosexuals who push it in our faces are the ones that bring my blood to boil. Both homosexual men and women have members in that category.

50 FTA: A leader within Alabama's Southern Baptist Convention, the Rev. Joe Godfrey, said he hoped churches would be loving and compassionate toward workers in such a campaign, but also firm in the denomination's position that the Bible allows only heterosexual relationships. The Southern Baptist Convention is the entity being targeted with the $8.5 million campaign. If the homosexuals cannot force the SBC to bend the knee to them, then the homosexuals will drain SBC coffers.
3/07/2014 – ERLC: Criminalizing homosexuals unjust
A government that criminalizes homosexual behavior "has overstepped its bounds drastically and unjustly," say 2 leading Southern Baptist ethicists.
Russell D. Moore, president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), and Andrew Walker, director of policy studies for the same entity, wrote in a 3/03/2014 essay they remain aligned with the Bible's view of sexuality while also contending homosexuals should not be targeted by the law.
They believe, Moore and Walker said, what the church has affirmed traditionally and universally -- "that sexuality is to be expressed only within the one-flesh union of the marriage of a man to a woman. Anything else is a sin against God. The church has believed this, and will always believe this, because the Bible teaches it.
"At the same time, we believe laws criminalizing homosexual activity to be unjust and an affront to the image of God embedded in all persons," they wrote in the commentary, which was posted at the ERLC's "Canon & Culture" blog channel.
I hope this young fellow, Russell Moore, can stick to his guns. I remain unsure of him.
God, the Gospel, and the Gay Challenge — A Response to Matthew Vines

22 They'll likely find out the hard way about, "southern hospitality", if they try preaching queerdom to the wrong group of "good ole boys".
Methinks that's precisely what they want. Just like during the 1960s with the Civil Rights Movement.
Matthew 10:14-16 (NIV, © 2011) 14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. 15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town. 16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

It’s all about putting this ‘tolerance and education’ in elementary schools.
To: Dilbert San Diego
I’d say she’s not militant and is largely keeping her sins to herself. People on the whole don’t approve but will live and let live if not forced into feeling somehow complicit in the sin. That’s the border between hospitality and hostility.

.... about softening up public opposition in anticipation of future court rulings on the matter. "Public opinion" isn't Who these borons need to be worried about.
Howya doin', x?
