Civil rights are civil rights regardless whether it is based on race or gender or religion or national origin or handicap condition. And yes, some blacks get upset. If you were around in the 70s, some of them were upset about the comparison of the black civil rights movement and the women's rights movement. Everyone wants to feel that their struggle is unique.The Homosexual Dilemma exists only in the minds of those who dislike marriage equality, much like folks who disliked interracial marriage.
Tough for them back then and tough for you today because we are never going back.
Get over it and don't marry someone you don't love is the best advice you can get.
Once again jaketherightwinger, does it need explained to you that being black and being gay are not the same thing by a long shot? How long are the blacks going to take the insults from left wing operatives. I really have to wonder what is wrong with blacks that ignore such insults.
If this is true then why don't I ever hear the comparison of Gay rights to women's rights?
No one brought gays here as slaves. No one denied gays the right to vote. No one fought a war to free gays. If we go under the presumption that being gay is a choice then fine, but parading down the street or announcing a person's gayness certainly is a choice. I person can keep their gayness to themselves, if they so wish, it is their choice, it is their freedom. A black man can't keep his color to themselves.
I am all for equal rights in hiring, education or any other program provided by the government, regardless of sexual persuasion. But don't try and tell me that marriage, as always defined by law, is anything other then between a man and a woman.
You want people to keep their sexual orientation to themselves? Good one. lol
