Whether the op was looking to stoke anger, he's about to get it! To quote Margo Channing, "Fasten your seatbelts! It's going to be a bumpy night!" Rant continued. Obviously, you identify as a Republican. There must be something seriously WRONG with you! Why be part of a party that despises your very existence? Do you value being fiscally conservative above being gay? In your case, I use gay because you haven't earned the right to be QUEER! You could be libertarian or independent. More than just a Democrat, I'm a radical Leftist, a QUEER Abbie Hoffman would be a good description. At the age of 10, I was too young for Stonewall, but well aware of it's significance. Could we be headed for another Stonewall? Maybe, but this time we MUST not become complacent. Once again to the op, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem! Shall I continue?
