I almost didn't respond to this because of heard of what some people call "The Gay Agenda"...Like there's a council of super-gays sitting around a large conference room looking to make the world gay...
No one I've ever known to be gay has ever displayed this attitude...And if there is a gay agenda, then Perez Hilton is screwing it up big time...So is Barney Frank, who is the WORST GAY MAN IN THE HISTORY OF GAY MEN.
I am sorry but if you are in public saying a bunch of anti gay stuff, and a gay guy comes up to you and attacks you. It isnt YOU who will get in trouble, it would be the gay guy because he started the fight. The only reason this thing I was talking about didn't get broken was because I think the cops thought it was funny, and I think even the cops thought the bigots got what they deserved.
And what are you talking people can't say stuff allowed nowadays? I was JUST TALKING ABOUT a anti gay group who was protesting in san francisco. They were running around yelling all their views (until they got their asses kicked).
And i don't know where you live but I know plenty of people who have got in fights, I've been in quite a few myself when I was younger, and no one got sued. Or got their houses vandalized, or whatever idiotic stuff you are saying would happen.
Bottom line is you don't go in san francisco and try to have a anti rallie. That doesn't quite work in San Francisco. lol.
Gays don't go to arkansas and try to have gay parades (i dont think they do) So these hillbillies shouldn't come to san francisco and try to have anti gay ralleys. Its stupid.
What I'm basically trying to say is... you are a HUGE PUSSY if you don't stand up for your beliefs. My point was all these people say all this anti gay stuff, but then when a gay person confronts them, they back down. I find that funny.
The reason they back down isn't cause they are afraid of getting "sued" or anything. That is rediculous.

Well I do not back down on my objections to Gay Rights. I simply do not discuss the matter with certain individuals because I know they would get very upset with what I have to say. I do not enjoy making others feel sad or upset, it is not who I am. I do not lie to them, I just try to avoid topics that may result in this happening. Are you telling me you have never held back on a desire to say or do something in public that would make you look bad? You have never had a negative thought about someone else but decided it was best for everyone if you did not say it to their face? Seriously man, come on.
Making the decision not to do or say certain things in public does not make you a pussy. If you do something that is likely to cause trouble or hardship for others and is not an essential thing that needs to happen, why go through with it? And no I am not using "sued" in the context that you are. I am talking about its use as a tool to silence those with differing views in the context of media. I would not be good target to sue anyway as I possess very few assets. :/
If this is about anti-Gay Rallies, then I agree with you. I have never and will never participate in an Anti-Gay protest. Why? Because I do not believe it is my duty to show hate and intolerance. Burning Carsen Kressley's autobiography, holding a bonfire for Harry Potter books and AC/DC albums and ESPECIALLY holding up signs with "God hates fags" at people's funerals are deplorable examples of behaviour done by extremists who have lost the true meaning of their Holy Scriptures. If you believe God exists, do you really think God would value your tendency to show hate and intolerance over acknowledging sin but treating others with tolerance, respect and compassion?
