lol, how can you say an opinion is innaccurate? geesh, who died and made you god?
Oh, you can have your opinion, Empyre, but when you go around espousing complete garbage, I have to call you on it. Many people are of the opinion that "white power" is a good thing, but that's doesn't make it right, now does it?

I'm not by ANY means saying "gays and lesbians are preying on people"..nice try on twisting my words. I have many good friends that are gay, and its their choice...not mine.
Hey man, it was your analogy. You used a sexual predator preying on neighborhood children as analagous to "innocent STD-free bystanders" being unwillingly and unfairly infected by, in your opinion, the gay lifestyle and people who live it. Your suggestion is that I would not stand by and wait for a pedophile to prey on my child, so why would I stand by and allow myself to be in danger of being infected by these dirty, diseased people. I'm sorry if you think I am twisting your words, Empyre. I am simply going back to what you have already stated and reminding you what you have said, and how you have said it.

Yes, that could happen, Empyre, on the same day that the planets align and monkeys fly out of my ***. Ok, ok..there's a chance that someone's nose could bleed directly into my mouth and I could contract HIV. I won't live my life wondering when a miraculous event like this might happen. I'm sure others would agree. And still, you have not commented on what exactly you'd like to see done. I mean, quarantine these sick people? What? Your argument makes no sense. I'll break it down for you:
"Oh my gosh, I'm afraid of contracting HIV or STDs, that most notably come from the gay community. I think there is a threat to those people not suffering with HIV or AIDS from this dirty sect of people. But I am not saying we should do anything. Or that I dislike anyone."
See how it kinda falls apart at the end?

There has to be some sort of accountability for actions like these, and a LOT more preventative measures. Currently its just "let everyone do what they want and pretend nothing happened until it happens to us.."
We'll all be living in bubbles soon. Maybe we'll sue each other for looking at one another the wrong way. I would argue that it's not at all "let everyone do what they want" or gay people would have marital rights already. Oh, the horror!!

EDIT: one more thing. the only reason my analogy didnt make sense to you is because you took it the wrong way, not my fault. I wasn't comparing gays to child molestors...i was talking about looking out for your own. nice job on completely missing the point tho.
Explain it then. Tell me exactly how a pedophile preying on children can relate to an argument on gay lifestyles, the spread of disease, looking out for my own and apathy. And, by the way, I missed the point?? The point of this thread was gay marriage, not the spread of disease. You feebly threw in something about our "founding fathers" and how we should adhere to their values, but didn't exactly explain how that would be a benefit to anyone at all. Yes, massa!!
