Seven billion human being in the world are insisting on fifteen little words that are destroying the entire planet. Those words are: "My way is right. Your way is wrong. And I will kill you (or hate you) for it !!!”
Judgmental criticism is the disapproval of other people---not for having faults---but for having faults which are different than their own.

It just bothers me that "gays" aren't protected the same way that non-whites are from discrimination. They should be. Never in a million years would this happen if it were a straight black woman. All the same whether I like the subject or not every American has the right to voice themselves this way, and that should remain untouched. The solution here is to afford people of different sexual orientation the same protections as everyone else, IMHO.

These are just housewives with nothing better to do than propogate intolerance and ignorance. As a joke JC Penny should write a public statement saying somthing along the lines of "We are happy you were able to leave the house for a short period of time to protest against homesexual representation, but it is time you ladies head back where you belong, to the kitchen".
I don't really hold those views, but I would definetely laugh if such were to happen.

What hate against Ellen she has done nothing wrong whatsoever. Straight Women are wanting equal rights as any man to be successful in business/career yet deny a lesbian woman her career/business freedom descrimating her based on sexuality. Shame on these one million moms for protesting hate towards all gays and lesbians to have equal rights.
To deny a lesbian is to deny a gay.
One Million Moms/One Million Dads project One of AFA's (American Family Assc) creations is One Million Moms and One Million Dads, two websites with the goal mobilizing parents to "stop the exploitation of children" by the media. It organizes boycotts and urges activists to send emails to mainstream companies employing advertising, selling products, or advertising on television shows they find offensive. The "One Million" in the titles of the projects appears to be a completely arbitrary number, as it is not based on any actual survey of group members, let alone how many members might be mothers or fathers. en.wikipedia.org...
Labeled a hate group
Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), in a 2005 report, stated that the AFA, along with other groups, engaged in hate speech to "help drive the religious right's anti-gay crusade." Mark Potok of the SPLC determined that the turning point was 2003's Lawrence v. Texas, in which the Supreme Court struck down Texas's anti-sodomy laws. After that, the Christian right spent millions on advertisements, and on pastor briefings organized by activists such as born-again Christian David Lane. Lane helped AFA put constitutional opposite-sex marriage amendments on the ballots of 13 states.
In November 2010, the SPLC changed their listing of AFA from a group that used hate speech to the more serious one of being designated a hate group. Potok said that the AFA's "propagation of known falsehoods and demonizing propaganda" was the basis for the change.
The AFA was greatly displeased with the designation as a hate group, calling the list "slanderous". In response to the SPLC's announcement, some members of the Christian right "call[ed] on Congress to cut off their funding." J. Matt Barber of The Washington Times said that the SPLC was "marginalizing" themselves by giving the AFA the same hate group designation shared by the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis. en.wikipedia.org...

I just went to their web page and I was NOT surprised to find that there was no way to leave a comment nor was there a 'contact' link. Given the percentage of people that are gay and/or those that support people who are, I find it difficult that there are enough of these bigots to even have a following.

I don't really get why people dislike gay people? I mean who cares who she has sex with or falls in love with?
How does that make a person bad?
And to all the bible thumpers, all sins are equal in your God's eyes and all humans sin, so thats not even a valid excuse to hate someone.
