Chuck said, “We are coming to a tipping point.” You must be young. I’ve been living as a gay person since the summer of Stonewall (1969). Trust me, we are now well beyond the tipping point. The final outcome is assured. The only remaining question is the timing until the final cleanup.

As an aside, glad to see you here at BTB! :) Your video about your late uncle was moving and inspirational to me. Thanks for making it.

The logical arguments have all been made, and all that’s left is a heavy and violent shift that’s looming in the air.

I think I can guess that what’s to come won’t be easy, but it’s going to happen.

To simply show casual affection could result in a major assault and even being killed!
To have a relationship of the same sex, could open you up to custody battles and profound loss of a relationship with your own child. Your parents and siblings.

The RISK assessment here, and who has the socio/political advantage isn’t stressed enough.
Dan Cathy suffered no real risk, in what he said nor what he financially supported.
There is no RISK to anyone, even when gay people get married.

There is no RISK in being Christian in America. Any litigation, or boycotts or even job losses, were from breaches of civil or private non discrimination contracts, not because of any anti Christian sentiment from the gov’t.
And even litigation and boycotts ARE A LEGAL RIGHT, it’s not fascism or terrorism, even on the part of gays and lesbians.
Because equal treatment of gay people, cannot and does not restrict the rights of others.

And those who say it’s offensive or wrongful to compare being black with being gay, in the misery scale…
Remind those who say that, you’re not comparing color with sexual orientation, but comparing the injustices inflicted for a singular, morally neutral attribute.

And that the venerated warriors of the Movement, like Coretta King, Rep. John Lewis, Julian Bond, Andrew Young, Mildred Loving, Maya Angelou and so on, KNOW DIFFERENTLY.
So what do THESE anti gay people think THEY know about social injustice, that the aforementioned didn’t or don’t?

Trust me when I say, that shuts them the hell up every time.
But, unfortunately, playing the victim doesn’t.

It’s the lack of proportions here. They really don’t know how to weigh them rightly, and they SHOULD. And for that, we can’t hold them accountable enough.
