FACT: Republicans and Christians are discriminated against more than gays

(On Brad Pitt supporting gay marriage):

"If little Bradley REALLY wants to see some discrimination, he should become a Republican and/or a Christian."

5. Bwahahahahahahahaha!
I've been both Republican and Christian (at the same time, no less), and I can assure that asswipe that he's wrong. I've been discriminated against far more because I am female than I ever was because I was a Christian or a Republican, and my gay and lesbian friends have seen far worse. He needs to get his head out of his ass.

26. Now the Freeper could have been correct if he had
said that a Black gay republican christian is more discriminated against because chances are it would have been by members of their own groups (republican christians).

I grew up a republican christian and I was an outsider because I did not do what other kids did but I don't think I was discriminated against. I enjoyed my outsider position at school and hung with kids that were also considered outsiders. We had a fairl large group. We didn't run around with each other because we had little in common, but at school we were a group.

7. Poor widdle Freeps
Repub pResident for 8 years, Repub majority for 6, separation of church and state trampled repeatedly in that time, Constitution devalued to TP, creation being taught in many schools as science, Repub disaster capitalism about to throw us into GOP Depression II....

How they love to play the victim. I just wish they'd leave the rest of us out of it.

12. What a bunch of spoiled brats
Not having special rights, dictating other people's lives, and getting your way all the time =/= being fired, bullied, beaten up, hosed, shot, gassed, lynched, raped, tortured, dragged behind trucks, bombed, etc. because of your race/sexuality

27. Perhaps someone should go over there and tell them
they are confused, it is Clay Aiken that is gay. You know that good christian boy who said he would not have sex until he got married. ;)

21. Sure they are, just ask them!
What else can you call it when someone said "Happy Holidays" to them instead of "Merry Christmas"?

17. It's quite simple, really
Until and unless you're frothingly pro-Christian at all levels, you hate little baby Jesus and America, not necessarily in that order.

18. Lets see when was the last time you had a gay couple come to your door and say hi we are
gay and would love you to join us, regardless of your beliefs? When has a gay person ever stood on your door step threatening you with eternal damnation because you won't join or even accept their literature? Or want to enact laws to force all Americans to follow their beliefs? I have yet had one gay person come to my door step or seen one gay law that would effect my life.

I can't say that about republicons nor christians as both have stood on my door step foaming at the mouth screaming that I was a heathen or that I was unpatriotic because I said I wouldn't vote a republicon to clean up the dog catchers trucks, well come on republicons screw things up so bad with a pen just think what damage they could do with chemicals and scrub brushes.

Btw to either cons or christians out there lurking, stop screaming my neighbors already figured out what I'm about, so theres no need telling them about me, in fact my neighbors kinda like me I stay out of their yard they stay out of mine, that passes as heaven now a days.

19. Discrimination only applies to things you can't change
You could always stop being a Republican, a Fundie, or an asshole.

20. How many times have I heard
some ass wipe RePuke say that if Gays didn't put their sexual pref in peoples face most wouldn't even know they were gay. Well, far as I am concerned same thing applies to RePukes AND Christians. BTW, I have NEVER had a gay person knock on my door offering literature and or discussion about their orientation, wish I could say the same thing for Christians..
