Huckabee and gay marriage

Nothing like some good wholesome American ignorance and hypocrisy eh?

Yeah - gay sex creeps me out.. so let's make discrimination ok. Why we're at it's let's segregate minorities and remove a women's right to vote... just as legitimate a claim. Maybe we can gather up some minority group we're at war with (perhaps muslims) and put them in camps like we did with the Japanese in the 40's? But let's not digress, land of free, home of the brave... I'm waving my flag, wearing a ribbon, supporting the troops, protecting my right to bear arms, consuming useless products...and discriminating.. ain't we all grand?

here we go again.

Godfather.

in regards to gay couples adopting: "chilren are not puppies."

So... he doesn't believe in adoption at all? I don't understand... I know that children are not puppies. I probably learned that when I was about 3 or 4 months old.

This country's politicians are so disgusting that I can't even pay attention any longer. Deevolution started around Woodrow Wilson's presidency.

I guess I wasn't clear with my post, my bad..It was reference to another thread about Rights as American's have them, my comment had nothing to do with my stance on gay's just their Rights being denied.
if I am a reasonable person what kind of comment would you like to read from me ?



Godfather.

I wasn't referring to you! I was referring to Huckabee.

lol that made me laugh

same sex and gay marriage isn't hurting anyone except for those with religious 'values' and beliefs.

although, i must say, as much as i am for gay marriage, i never thought of comparing it to polygamy...
who is to say that one man can't marry 3 women i guess..
...except for when they're marrying 12 year olds or women who were never allowed free thought or access to the outside world....

I agree with this whole heartedly. I don't care if a man wants to marry a carrot, I don't understand the problem.. marry a thousand people, who gives a shit

all those things are okay in my book.

Polygamy? If it is consentual... who cares? If it is a kid... then that is child abuse and a different subject entirely.
Drug use? Why do I care what someone else does with their body? Do as you will and harm none...
Incest? Again, if it is consentual... who cares? It is a bit weird, yes, but none of my business.
Gay marriage? I think marriage is an outdated concept but hey... do as you will...

Some people may think those things are taboo... and maybe they are... but NONE should be illegal. There are too many fucking laws, I think we'd be better off if there were like TEN laws total... don't murder, steal, rape, abuse, assault, and hell... let's add LIE. That should do it. And when someone harms another they are sent to Alabama or Mississippi and locked in a huge area where they can continue to live as they want with other people who have hurt others, have their own economy, and do as they please. Minor crimes are punishable by a fine or community service, no jails. Problem solved. Next.

while the vatican protects child rapists, lies to police and parents of victims by saying they won't be around kids anymore and simply moving them to another church, in some cases with the offender being the only member of the church!, pays a pension to an offender in exchange for his contempt of court charges instead of answering certain questions.....

In response to a 1992 questionnaire from The Associated Press, Huckabee, then a Senate candidate in Arkansas, spelled out his opposition to homosexuality, saying it was crucial that the country not "legitimize immorality."

"I feel homosexuality is an aberrant, unnatural, and sinful lifestyle," he wrote, in response to a question about gays in the military.

He also advocated isolating AIDS patients from the general public, saying it was necessary to confine "carriers of this plague."

Jesus also was raised by a single mom (didn't know daddy) - so let's break up the family unit - it's what Jesus knew from so it must be good.
