This forum seems pretty good and safe

I understand a fiscal conservative point of view and have no problem with it but I do have a problem with a socially conservative point of view and a gay person aiding these same people who will do everything to insure that gay people are second class citizens.

I watched the Republican candidates stay silent when some people in the crowd booed the gay soldier.....so no...I don't understand the Log Cabin Republicans support of these people....but I love free will and free speech so I support their right to believe whatever they want to...I don't have to like it or support them as people though.

Most of the gains for equality have been made by Liberals standing up for equality so I will never understand a gay person trashing the people who have stood up for them. But again...I don't need to understand them and it would take too much of my time to even try...and time is precious.
.
A quick look at who supports marriage equality and hate crimes legislation and other issues of importance to the equality and protection of GLBT people and you will find overwhelming support coming from Liberals and Democrats...personally I don't like to bite the hand that feeds me. :biggrin:

This is a list of the politicians who support gay marriage

Not alot of Republicans there....Republicans regularly use gay people as a wedge issue and they exploit people's homophobia and fears and use us as scapegoats to win elections.

On another note...I do like Republican Liberals....some Republicans are social liberals...they are fine with me.
