[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.
