Who? ME? Or is this some of that generalization stuff you just chatised me for? I've never been to a pride parade. Like the majority of gay US citizens I live in a rural area. I don't run around wearing anything outrageous nor make a public spectacle of myself.

Actually, although I see outrageous behavior at parades as conter-productive I support their right to do so as much as I <choke> support Fred Phelp's right to spew his venom as long as he isn't tresspassing or harassing.

I beg your pardon? Show me one nasty generalization I have made to this thread. I have conducted this discussion with respect to you and other posters who disagree with my position, as I always do. Perhaps in your own generalizations you are blurrying my posts with others?

Again, I have only countered you and others with questions geared to foster civil discussion. Where have I ever stated on this forum or any other that no one is entitled to an opinion unless it is my opinion?

I don't think that someone who disagrees on the issue of gay marriage is automatically a bigot. Those that take it a step further and support bans on civil unions and rights of homosexuals in general are definitely biggoted.
