Heh heh heh! I laid a thought from three different books on you but I don't think you decoded one clue. Sorry I didn't intend to add to your confusion. Hint. "The Art of Power" is one, a book a failed to list in the other thread.
Since the two Supreme Court decisions a year ago, 13 lower court cases have been heard on marriage equality. All were decided pro equality. Every popular vote since the Court decisions has gone pro equality, as have legislative votes. Nearly half the population now lives in states that have marriage equality. A clear majority now supports marriage equality. All 50 states either have marriage equality, a pro equality decision on hold pending appeal, or a suit against marriage discrimination. Among the younger generation there is overwhelming support for marriage equality. Barring a totally unexpected seismic shift in US/world politics, the momentum in favor of marriage equality is past the point where it can be overturned. That is the right side of history. It's pretty hard to argue otherwise, which is why name calling is used instead. Before Jackie Robinson re-broke (yes, re-broke, baseball was once integrated, then segregated, then re-integrated) baseball's color bar, some light-skinned African American athletes took on Spanish names and pretended to be Cuban to play ball. To keep up the charade, in a totally segregated America of that time, they could not attend black churches or social events, invite family members to games, date black women. Not surprisingly, most when their playing days were over dropped the charade. Did they "bounce" between being black and being white (or Hispanic)? Or were they African-Americans who were hiding and lying? No one bounces between gay and straight. The only time I bounce is when my bra wears out. And I'm now worn out and out of here.
I'm like tim wakefield's personal catcher doug mirabelli, I specialize in catching the knuckler. If you know what I mean
It is pretty hard to argue otherwise, it is also harder for certain people to admit they were wrong....so they argue.
PS, Jonah Hill proved a good example of what I was saying earlier. He got pissed off and let the expletives fly!!!
Funny thing is, I've been called a bigot repeatedly by crandc in the past, yet I can honestly say I've literally never once used a gay or racial slur toward anyone, let alone in anger. It's OK for Jonah Hill and Alec Baldwin to use gay slurs as insults, because they are on the "right" political team.
I would rather be called gay or *** than be treated nice to my face only to have my rights denied. What Jonah Hill did was fine in my book, but who knows what he really thinks? I don't agree with her labeling you for your beliefs. If you had some power over gay marriage and denied it I could understand. I don't believe that many people choose to be gay if any, so I can't see discrimination being acceptable. It isn't up to me.
