gay, lesbian and transgender youth make up at least 20 percent — possibly as much as 40 percent — of the total number of homeless and runaway youth

It being that homosexuals make up less than 2% of the population, this number seems a bit implausible, but it gets better: This is Bush's fault...

(wait for it)
(wait for it)

The report also expressed concern that President Bush's push for federal funding of faith-based organizations might lead to situations where a church-run shelter program would discriminate against a gay youth seeking services.

Two random incidents are enough to condemn all private charities as far as the buttsex comunity is concerned. Pathetic.

[Two national advocacy groups Tuesday accused the federal government of neglecting what they described as an epidemic of homelessness affecting tens of thousands of gay and lesbian youth, many of whom leave home because of conflicts with their parents.]

We should make it a crime for gay and lesbian youths to be homeless. That would solve the problem.

Why did I read this again?

Wow. Not one word about the drug abuse that permeates the "lifestyle" and leads to this "homelessness".

last I knew "running away" was a choice, so the "pro homosexual agenda" must be causing all this homelessness.

It is more likely that they left home after their parents made the unreasonable rule that they cannot have sex at home. The Master Race needs to teach their parents a lesson.

the total number of homeless and runaway youth, a fluid population which experts have estimated at 575,000 to 1.6 million each year

In other words, 8% of all children in America between the ages of 12-17 are runaways living on the street.

There's a believable statistic.

There is an easy fix for this.

Send them all a self-help brocure with one page that says:

Hey, Dildo Cintron, you are not a Gay Youth. You are 25 years old. Have you considered getting a job?

Who else can they blame for being gay and homeless? Themselves?

The GNL groups have plenty of money for lobbying, etc. Why don't they spend it on these kids, instead?

LOL good analysis.

"Journalists" have not caught up to the fact that the internets allow us to check their loony lies, and that computers come with a calculator.

Just don't expect them to look anything like the ones on "The L Word."

We should make a law forbidding youth to be gay.

They want special subsidies for people because they're gay. You'll end up with a lot of homeless people lying to get special treatment and the queers ostracizing them. It wouldn't be discrimination, no...
