5. where? who?

7. Saying who or where would be breaking DU rules, however...

it's quite apparent going into nearly all threads involving gays. It's quite pathetic actually. It started up bad with the NJ ruling then got worse when Haggard was outted.

6. Who's doing what?

Some folks need their butts kicked to the curb? I'm with you. Homophobes ought to sign up with the Repugs, they'll be at home there.

8. hi sniffa

I like or dislike people based on who they are, not random things like sexual orientation or hair color. Hell, most the time on DU I have no idea of many of these characteristics. Always has to be some noisy people. I was thinking about you last night, trying to remember who it was that did the "L"s and everyone posted lots of L word subject lines in the lounge a couple yrs back, then remembered it was you. So hi.

17. Me too...of course, I am sick of all the bigotry...PERIOD.

But, I think I am really sick, violently ill, at the double-speak that I have been seeing.

18. It permeates our culture, even among those who see themselves

as enlightened.

Every era has a need to go on witch hunts and victimize
certain segments of society. Some day people are going to
look back at this time in history and just shake their heads
at the ignorance.

Gays will eventually obtain full rights and status, and
no longer be societal scapegoats.

Fight the good fight, hold your head high.
You will prevail in the end, please know that.

19. Kicked and recommended.

It's so, so sad to see allegedly progressive Democrats engaging in not very subtle homophobia here. It's insulting to all of the GLBT people here. And it's just plain fucking insulting to Democratic Underground. Come on...that's what they do at Free Republic. We should be better than that.
