OK, oddly enough I’m OK with this... The pendulum had swung too far against gays back then ... The stand at Steonewall was the right response.

Just like today when the pendulum has swung too far the other way and we have the insanity of PC ‘nuttiness’ forced on US... Which, by the way helped bring about the Trump rebellion...

Revelation 20. Unfortunately, you are correct.

[OK, oddly enough I’m OK with this... The pendulum had swung too far against gays back then ... The stand at Steonewall was the right response.]

If Wiki is correct, I’d say it was a milestone in bringing down the United States and that’s exactly the sort of thing Obama set out to do and is doing. This is a shameful poison that appears to have spread to other Western nations.

[Many look to the riots at Stonewall as being the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement.]

[Within two years of the Stonewall riots there were gay rights groups in every major American city, as well as Canada, Australia, and Western Europe.]

The modern gay movement morphed into a bunch of thugs bullying traditional Americans.

I'm not defending that... People tend to exploit their 'victim-hood' until everyone else says, "Enough is enough"... That's happening now. We're all tired of professional victims.

I'm saying at the time of Stonewall gay Americans had legitimate grievances.

For example:

Being unfaithful is also against the Word of God... but we've moved away from putting women in stocks - - making them wear a large letter “A”. We also don't stone the unfaithful to death.

The New Testament still has Romans 1.
