They have - technically - the same rights as everyone else...”life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
What they don’t have is the right to force their beliefs on the rest of us.
My right to punch another person in the nose ends where that person’s nose begins. Gays’ civil rights end where our civil rights begin.
The truth remains that it is not civil rights they are after - we all have those - it’s “special rights” they seek, along with the power to insist that we accept, no...embrace them.
Government can pass whatever they want to cater to these perversions of humanity, but until they win the hearts and minds of the public at large, they’re just another group of power-seekers.
The “civil rights” that already exist are totally out of scope, and control. They were meant to elevate a group, but have devolved into nothing more than another tyranny on the taxpayer-at-large.
Civil rights laws create the same type of class envy that Obama rails about at every outing, and has done zilch for race relations. It’s just a mechanism to allow more people to be non-productive and dependent on others for their subsistence.
If they want “play” married, then play...but no other person, or business should be forced to accept it, in any way.
Who gets civil rights next? Axe murderers? Rapists? Red-headed people?
What happens in the future when numerous groups get “special rights”? Will the fight for SUPER Civil Rights begin?
Someone, or group, is always going to want more rights than other...special permissions to lord over everyone else, it’s human nature.
People who conduct themselves in a manner to make themselves unapproachable, are hypocritical when demanding equality. Flamboyant, and often lewd public parades don’t make them anything other than weird, and perverse to the average American.
Pursuing happiness at the expense of others’ misery is not acceptable, after all, we’re talking lifestyle, not race or gender.
Well said, and I think we are reaching the apex and reversal of special rights. This is its swan song.
I demand my legislated respect, dammitt!
