    And I'd bet (5:1), that there is not any business that doesn't serve abject ADULTERERS.

    Too many religious people are some "belief" to justify their HATE. (I think that God/fate is watching, and does not approve.)

    If you IMPOSE that upon heterosexuals as well... you might have something that's equitable.

    I never denied you needed to register. You still don't have a clue. Ive operated 3 businesses in Texas and didn't need a license for a one of them.

    That would be your issue, not theirs. I don't see it hardly ever and it was weird the 1st time I say 2 guys holding hands. But again, it's our problem, not theirs.
    I'm not big on teens hanging all over each other in public either.

    You snipped out part of my post.
    Parts with questions you've ignored. 2X now.

    How dare they hold hands in public!?
    Don't they know their place?

    Sounds like my racist grandpa.

    All of the businesses in question have been required to obtain a license, submit to inspections, and have a tax ID. Each of these carry requirements that they believe they are above

    Yes I would say that too when my arguement was defeated. Next time understand what you are actually arguing about before having to be shown that a person can be anyone of any age or number.

    I tried to enlighten you that this debate was over the moment the 14th amendment section 1 was used to justify gay marriage but you wouldn't listen. I hope next time you heed my cautionary note.

    And where have I said anything different? Where have I even mentioned the Bible? Do you even know who you are arguing?

    Chapter and verse from NAMBLA. Well done.

    No I'm reading the justification you and the rest of the liberals used for gay marriage which you obviously didn't think about before using it for justification.

    A person is simply a human being nothing more. That is the only definition in the 14th amendment section 1. The stupidity of the LGBT movement was using an amendment that had nothing to do with gay marriage and used it so broadly that any sexual preference can make the exact same argument.

    I understand you are frustrated but don't shoot the messenger for proving how easily your argument for gay marriage can be used for pedophile marriage. You cannot get around the reality that a person is simply a human being.

    Show me the NAMBLA chapter and verse then.

    What justification? And how does that tie into whatever you keep hinting at.
    Pedophile marriage? WFT is that?

    I could live with that. But overt displays of heterosexuality doesn't turn my stomach.

    Sorry, but somewhat LMAO. Posts are constantly partially quoted in every corner of cyberspace, and with good reason. You don't get to make your own rules. I'll happily answer any question I may have ignored, but I'll reserve the right to not bother in the future as I absolutely choose.

    Those aren't my own rules. It is forum TOS to not alter others posts.
    Don't bother. Not worth the time.
    If you're sincere, you can link back by the little arrow in the posts to follow the posts back.

    Speaking of "extinct", gays would now be extinct if Hitler had won the war, so say thank you to all the grandpas out there for doing D-day to settle his hash..;)
    Oh, and if muslims take over America, gays will have a lot of trouble in store for them, so say thanks to your new President for wanting to keep them out, as you'd have been in a world o' hurt if Hillary had got in..:)

    It's not a consp-theory because some gays really do set up stings like in the title of this thread so they can sue.
    Hey, I applied to be a volunteer at a local charity shop a few years ago because the manager was a decent friendly chap, he was gay but I didn't care. But he said "Sorry, I've got all the volunteers I need at the moment".
    Perhaps he didn't like me because I'm straight, so should I have sued him for victimising me?..;)

    Well, only because the adulterers and pro adultery supporters have already had their days in court, usually against Christian Inn keepers who would deny unmarried couples a room.

    Maybe you'd have a leg to stand on if you would have been the only straight person.
    And he never said he doesn't want you because you are straight, so you had no case anyway.

    Adultery isn't just unmarried people.
    Most people in their 2nd or more marriage are committing adultery everyday because the bible has very strict reasons, 2 I think, on why one can get divorced.
    Any other reason but those 2, are not recognized per the bible, even if some man made church does, means those people are committing adultery. Per the bible. Which christians like to use to justify their bigotry. Not realizing how much of a hypocrite they are.

    Yes, maybe I should have secretly filmed our discussion and engineered him into making an anti-straight remark that my lawyer could use..;)

    "Gays would be extinct if Hitler had won the war."
    Think about that - let the sheer stupidity of that statement sink in.

    If gay was an ideology, like religion, maybe
    If gay was an ethnicity, maybe
    If gay was a learned behavior, maybe
    If gay was a pathogen, maybe

    But it is none of these things, straight people produce gay people daily

    If Muslims "take over America" it will be on the coat tails of the evangelical extremists that are paving the way for religious rule. I'm not sure what the Trump vs Clinton remark has to do with anything - voted for Trump and almost a straight Republican ticket.

    Anti-gay sentiment will be almost eradicated in 20-30 years.
    Gay rights enjoy 80% approval by individuals under 35
    The largest age group against it, those over 65

    - - - Updated - - -

    What's an example of an "anti-straight" remark?
    You mean like, "we don't serve your kind here" made to homosexuals?

    1- Wiki-"Upon the rise of Adolf Hitler, gay men and, to a lesser extent, lesbians, were two of the numerous groups targeted by the Nazis..."

    2- If muslims take over America, GLBT's are likely to get a midnight knock on their door by the Islamic Religious Police..;)

    You aren't so willing to accept the reality, that some things you have to at least tolerate... as long as they aren't being imposed upon you.

    There are a LOT of things people do that I really don't like at all... but they aren't forcing me to DO or WATCH any of it. I can almost always prevent myself from being a captive audience to things.

    You seem to excuse a lot and criticize others where you really should not.

    Much of what you say/protest boils down to simply disagreeing with others being different than yourself. And in that sense, there is nothing anyone can really do to satisfy you. It's virtually impossible.

    Amen. You are spot-on.

    Well that flew over your head
    You cannot eradicate homosexuality, all you can do is force people to suppress it - which is the end goal with the anti-gay advocates. They say they just "don't want to see it" or just "don't want to "celebrate / acknowledge it" but no one buys those lies anymore.

    No one claimed it was. By definition at least one of them must be married.

    I know you don't see it, but there wasn't a single word of criticism of anybody in my post.
    Youre delicate as a flower sensibilities are blooming again.
