Savage: "The children's minds are being raped by the homosexual mafia"
SUMMARY: Responding to a caller who said, "I had to explain to my young son why these two men were holding hands the other day," Michael Savage stated, "You've got to explain to the children ... why God told people this was wrong." He went on to say, "You have to explain this to them in this time of mental rape that's going on. The children's minds are being raped by the homosexual mafia, that's my position. They're raping our children's minds."
Responding to a caller who said, "I had to explain to my young son why these two men were holding hands the other day," radio host Michael Savage stated, during the June 16 broadcast of The Savage Nation, "You've got to explain to the children ... why God told people this was wrong." He went on to say, "You have to explain this to them in this time of mental rape that's going on. The children's minds are being raped by the homosexual mafia, that's my position. They're raping our children's minds."
During a discussion about gay marriage with a previous caller, Savage said: "It's not a joke when you pervert an institution like marriage, which is in trouble enough. It's not a joke." He added, "Our children are being destroyed by this." He went on to say of gay marriage, "It's a very important story. The children don't know what to make of it. Children nine, 10 are saying, 'I'm gay.' They don't know what it even means." He added: "It's a giant propaganda machine trying to pervert children."
Talk Radio Network, which syndicates Savage's show, claims that Savage is heard on more than 350 radio stations. The Savage Nation reaches at least 8.25 million listeners each week, according to Talkers Magazine, making it one of the most listened-to talk radio shows in the nation, behind only The Rush Limbaugh Show and The Sean Hannity Show.
From the June 16 edition of Talk Radio Network's The Savage Nation:
SAVAGE: San Francisco, Tina, welcome to The Savage Nation.
CALLER: Well, you make a really good point, Michael, and you have a great show, but I still think that you're not wise in being so adamant about these gay marriages. What difference does it make what they do? You're going to work yourself to a big heart attack like Tim Russert and --
SAVAGE: No, I won't work myself into a big heart attack. I'll tell you why: because the truth will set me free. It always has.
CALLER: But --
SAVAGE: Aren't you tired of the propaganda that every newspaper you pick up today shows old, ugly women getting married?
CALLER: Well, as a matter of fact, yes, I think that should be a private thing. But I also think --
SAVAGE: Well, why do you suppose every newspaper in America is showing this story?
CALLER: They have an agenda, of course, but still --
SAVAGE: Well, I have an obligation as a social commentator to say enough is enough, I've had enough of it. Just as I had enough of the Tim Russert worship on Friday. I had enough of it. I had enough of Obama a year ago -- he looks like Alfred E. Neuman to me.
CALLER: It's a joke, whether you're gay or straight, it's mostly a joke, but the thing is we don't want you to get all --
SAVAGE: It's not a joke when you steal an institution as fragile as marriage and you pervert it with a mockery. It's not a joke. It's not a joke when you pervert an institution like marriage, which is in trouble enough. It's not a joke. Our children are being destroyed by this.
CALLER: Well --
SAVAGE: I disagree with you totally. It's a very important story. The children don't know what to make of it. Children nine, 10 are saying, "I'm gay." They don't know what it even means. It's a giant propaganda machine trying to pervert children. That's my opinion.
Monterrey, California. Tom, what's you're opinion?
CALLER: Yes, I'm calling from the People's Republic of Monterrey, and I had to explain to my young son why these two men were holding hands the other day and he said, "Dad, didn't they say that that's wrong in the Bible?" And I said, "Yes, they did, and yes it's wrong" and yes to everything that he had to say about it. And I told him, I said, "That's the wrongest thing you've ever seen besides the rest of the politicians and the media and CNBC." Because --
SAVAGE: You've got to try to explain to the children why the -- why God told people this was wrong. You've got to explain to them, to the children, how it twists everything. Just take them down to a duck pond and show them a boy duck and a girl duck and then show the ducklings and say to them, "There must be a boy duck and a girl duck for there to be babies." It's the same with a dog, puppies come from a mother duck -- a mother pup, a mother dog. There needs to be a boy dog and a girl dog. You have to explain this to them in this time of mental rape that's going on. The children's minds are being raped by the homosexual mafia, that's my position. They're raping our children's minds.
CALLER: I'm not buying into it, which is -- I found was pretty neat, but, hey I enjoy your show, keep --
SAVAGE: Well, good, unless somebody else does. Well, OK, you don't care about it. To me it matters. To me it matters. It's just that the media is afraid of them or owned by them, and everyone's catering to them. It's like catering to Al Sharpton. You see the story that came out on him? You haven't seen the story all over the media? Can't report it, why? Because he's not a white man? So suddenly he's allowed to do things to companies like Jesse Jackson did for years -- without producing a product or a service? Just by threatening a boycott, they give him money? Well there was a name for it when Al Capone was around. I guess that's gone, gone with the wind, everyone's afraid in the corporate world, plus it's not their money anyway. They're not playing with their money, they're playing with your money. So the CEOs who run the companies do whatever they want to do with the money including buying off potential boycotts.
I would have just told the kid that those men were holding hands because they like each other.

Nothing wrong with that.
O_M:
You took the picture right out of my mouth.
I would suggest, though, that this particular palm-crush does represent a "rape:" the rape of our economy and national security by two unaccountable, elite dynasties.
I'll see you and raise... ;)

And who says the good doctor doesn't make sense?
Ah the greatest hits from nut-ball Savage. The pink hand is melting America! "The pink hand has melted the nation down!"

My diagnosis is that this guy savage is suffering from the advanced stages of Syphilis.
If I could see the victim to examine him, I could know better (there being rashes and other marks upon the skin, in particular areas, that confirm the presence of the disease)... but without seeing the poor bastid, I would say from the fevered and obscene nonsense he spews, that yes, he is suffering from the advanced stages of Syphilis.
It only gets worse too... it's an ugly thing...
I suggest putting him down... I'm very sorry.
Might I recommend this as a cheap and cheerful way to undermine such messages of hate and intolerance packaged as "patriotism," and the messengers thereof.
The timing, however, has to be precise, so as to catch listeners by surprise in the "stealth" stylee. Even if it means manipulating volume levels and/or modulation.
"It's not a joke when you steal an institution as fragile as marriage and you pervert it with a mockery. It's not a joke. It's not a joke when you pervert an institution like marriage, which is in trouble enough. It's not a joke. Our children are being destroyed by this."
I would have to say that, if anything, we should outlaw divorce as it seems to have a much larger effect on the "institution" of marriage than gays getting hitched. He's really throwing his anger in the wrong direction.

The how come we never hear Michael Weiner or anyone ELSE on the right complaining about any of THESE "marriages"??? Don't THESE make a mockery of the institution of marriage, as opposed to the union of two caring people who want to commit their lives to one another???

"When I saw the cat picture I had a very strong urge to dress my two cats up like that just to mess with them,"
And that would explain the reasoning behing your support of 'gay marriage'. You just want to "mess with them". Liberals aren't interested in morality, they just want to "mess with" society because they are lonely, lonely people who have nothing better to do than to "mess with" morality. Thanks for providing the perfect explanation as to why liberals think those who disagree with gay marriage are bigots but those who disagree with organized religion are perfectly normal. I couldn't have shown more hypocrisy if I had tried myself!
Pretty funny to see you talk all high-n-mighty about "reasoning" and such truck - then go on to demonstrate a pathetic attempt to read liberals' minds. Nice work, skippy.
: )
Cats and dogs...... my god that is sad.
Well, at least it wasn't a cat marrying a dog! We couldn't tolerate an inter-racial marriage like that!

SAVAGE: ...The children don't know what to make of it. Children nine, 10 are saying, "I'm gay."
Wow, even little kids can spot Weiner as a closet case.
On my lunchtime wingnut radio scan, I heard Dennis Prager telling a horrifying story. It seems a kid in Kindergarten noticed a wedding ring on his teacher on returning from vacation. The boy asked the teacher if she had married a boy or a girl.
Prager remarked that some Americans might regard this as "just great". He did not. While Prager admitted to being aware of gay people , he definitely does not approve of acknowledging their existence.
By now even the kids are aware of the slippery Santorum slope.
This is an open letter to Dr. Laura that was also posted online. I don't know the author, but it's wonderful. Laura Schlesinger is a US radio personality who dispenses advice on a national radio show; she recently said that homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned in any circumstance. Somebody else posted this on MMFA recently, but I don't remember who--sorry for stealing your idea, but it fits.
Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the specific laws and how to follow them. a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them? b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her? c) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians? d) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself? e) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination (Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? f) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here? g) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die? h) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? i) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev.24:10-16). Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev.20:14) I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging. g) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27.

I've seen no evidence that it is either.
There you go again Nerzog...
Disturbing everyone with the facts, a reasoned argument, and compassion.
Are you some kind of liberal?
You have yet to demonstrate how it is nonsense or hypocrisy. I love how you think you can just argue by vapid assertions without responding specifically to august's post above.
" I love how you think you can just argue by vapid assertions without responding specifically to august's post above."
Is the heat of summer getting to you? I responded to easy-wingnut's post. I suppose you, being a liberal, can't figure that out without someone explaining it to you. Maybe you'd like to take a shot at how "saint Paul" did more to screw up women's lives than anyone else. Because easy-wingut sure doesn't seem to want to follow up a bigoted-religion hating-self stated fact with any reasoning. Just being a typical liberal is good enough for him.
That was awesome. Especially this one: "Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?"
:D
Before the nude pictures of "Doctor" Laura appeared on the Internet, one of her lines (which she used repeatedly) was, "How can you ever take someone seriously again once they've spread their legs for the camera?"
Indeed.
"but son, be a good little boy and support the war effort, because while guys holding hands is wrong, killing people is not, no matter what the seventh commandment states."
Continueing your "son" theory: and remember, son, while being gay you won't have to worry about being one of the million mothers who kill a human to satisfy the blood thirsty urges of the hypocritical liberal who hates war efforts that could save the world from terrorists, but love to kill humans before they are born. That way they can claim autrocities by the government for a few thousand being dead while being free of blame for the 20+ million dead. So, son, you can grow up to be gay. They, at least think for themselves, but don't you EVER grow up to be a liberal. They are hypocrits of the worst kind and nobody likes them except themselves.
How does this Savage person know so much about rape?
He is a conservative with children. Is there any other way they reproduce other than the occasional asexual budding?
; )
A little more about this broadcast, during which Mr. Weiner was in top form, if you can call it that and at the end of which he promised to ramp up his "rhetoric": Last weekend there was a brutal and horrifyng child murder in my neck of the woods. You can read all about it here, but I warn you it is pretty sickening. At any rate, during one of his warm-ups, Savage menitoned that he had woken up this news and taht it sickened him. So far, so good; anyone who is anyone would be horrified by this story. However, not two sentences later, this man was blaming the newspapers (probably SFGATE, or The Modesto Bee) of anti-police bias in their reporting (the killer was shot by a cop after being told to stop killing his kid). In fact, the immediate coverage of this horrifying incident was merely stating the truth. There was no anti-polic bias present. Any sane person, I think, would agree that this monster had it coming. At any rate, if that weren't bad enough, Savage then went on to lament that the identity of the killer had not been released unitl Monday, even though the murder took place late Saturday night. The murderer's name was Sergio Casias Aguiar, if anyone really cares. Savage, of course, read it in that mock Spanish accent everyone uses when they're trying to imply you're a dirty Mexican and wondered out loud what his mock accent implied- not that it mattered if he was illegal or not. But, (my paraphrasing here), YOU KNOW THAT IF IT HAD BEEN A WHITE MAN, HIS NAME WOULD HAVE BEEN KNOWN SOONER BECAUSE WE KNOW THE LIBERAL MEDIA HAS AN AGENDA.
My point is, this man is a sick, sick, racist "piece of human filth"- to use his own weak-ass words. The station that broadcasts this crap in my area, AM 840- THE PATRIOT, is also "home" to our Chief of Police's weekly show, as well as a weekly show by our former mayor. I wonder if these fine gentlemen know they're sharing the airwaves with such a disgusting, racist creep? Woudl they care? Probably not.
For the record, the child-murderer was a U.S. citizen- not that it matters, but, you know, according to Savage, non-white criminals, including child killers, get a pass from the media because, you know, the white man is, to quote Chuck D, an endangered species.
Are you calling him a "sick, sick, racist piece of human filth" because you don't like him or because something in the story was incorrect? You stated the story quite realistically. Maybe you can answer why those type of "news"papers will not publish the names of mexicans when they are the ones perpetrating violent crimes.... maybe you can't.
During your entire vent, I did not see you print anything out of the ordinary, what are you complaining about? That savage is sick because he brought the truth to you and you can't handle the truth?
http://www.modbee.com/1618/story/330185.html
Oops. Wrong blog.
Savage-Weiner forgot to use "vile rat" over and over and over and over. I'm disappointed.
I'm not a very religious man, but I'm really thinking of sitting down and repeating this prayer...
"Dear Lord, please make the son of Dr. Weiner turn out to gay! Dear Lord..."
Question: Considering how I havn't prayed in years, How many times do you think I have to repeat it before it takes?
"Dear Lord, please make the son of Dr. Weiner turn out to gay! Dear Lord..."
And then the debate would rage on - was it genetics or upbringing that caused his father's gayness to be inherited by his son?
Well, considering there is NO scientific support to claim "inherited" it would have to be upbringing. One of the biggest holes in the liberal claim that being gay is a civil right issue is that you aren't born that way. Liberal arguements always have a lot of holes in them, but truth (or lack of) never stopped a liberal from continueing their complaints.
God created a lot of things, but creating a society that can't sustain itself through breeding isn't one of them. The only way the gay society can sustain its population is to steal offspring from others.
Why are those who call themselves "conservatives" so afraid of everything and everyone?
That's easy, Mark. Republicans are pussies. Anything else I can help you with?
"That's easy, Mark. Republicans are pussies. Anything else I can help you with?"
Says the man(?) hiding behind the keyboard, posting anonymous threats to those he is afraid to take on face to face. You ever said that to a live human? Nah, I didn't think so. Maybe you're a (self-defined) republican.
Oh I forgot one. Liberals fear the UNBORN since they may develop into babies which would really screw up our free and easy lives and we might have to take some responsibilty for them. Come to think of it, liberals fear RESPONSIBILTY in general.
Here's what the abortion mess has wrought:
http://jewishworldreview.com/jeff/jacoby061908.php3
Mark from the Windy City: You really have no idea what you are talking about.
You entirely miss my point about abortion, which is that it fits with the rest of my list in that liberals are all about shirking personal responsibility. And it's the ONLY time liberals want governemnt to stay out.
That is true of health care. Rather than look for government control let's look for the free market to work. In fact it is government intervention which is most responisble for skyrocketing health care costs. The liberals in government have passed laws forbidding health insurers to write policies unless they cover everything under the sun and that drives up premiums, co-pays, deductibles an co-insurance. Gov't then turns around and pays about 1/3 of doctor's fees for their medicaid and medicare recipients which means those of us paying our way have to pay more. And instead you now want the governent to pick up the tab for millions more. That's really an absurd point of view. Where is the money going to come from?
This is driving good doctors into retirement and keeping college grads from going to med school. You need to grasp the issues at hand instead of just calling for government, -- i.e. all of us -- to keep footing the bill.
As for corportations I don't like them that much since most would rather rig the market with the help of politicians -- many of whom are Democrats by the way. I'm no corporatist, but I do not have a problem with people and companies making money. It's obvious that liberals do. Whether they are oil companies, insurance companies or pharmaceutical companies. Just pick the industry and liberals have little good to say. There is not a country anywhere that has prospered without at least some free market economics. Restrict that and the people wind up oppressed.
The point is, just like the pregnant woman, let the rest of society choose. Let us choose where to buy health insurance and how much to buy, let us choose how to plan for our retirement and give us more choice in where and how to educate our children. But no, the liberal thinks we are unable to take care of ourselves. That's offensive to at least half the people in this country which is why the libs haven't won too many presidential elections in the last 40 years. And when you say the government should stay out when an unborn child is involved, that is absurd because society's compelling interest to protect that life certainly trumps the interest the government in any of these other areas where it wants to meddle.
As for defending the country individuals of all political stripes have taken up arms to fight, but I was getting at the general concept of defending the country. And it is crystal clear that since 9/11 the liberals as a whole have absolutlely no interest in defense of our a way of life and it is because they see America as the problem.
As for John Kerry specifically it was 95 percent of the people who served right next to him that exposed him as a fraud. Who better to know the truth than that group. To say that was some kind of lie by right-wingers is ridiculous.
When it comes to talk radio I think for myself. I'm all for debate and all points of view. I dont take word for word what anybody says. Liberals do want to stamp out speech through the Fairness Doctrine and when it comes to college speakers they want to forbid them from speaking. You never responded to that one because you know it's true. You don't want to hear the other side -- just like you don't want a women to see an ultrasound before the abortion decision -- becuase it just might CHANGE YOUR MIND.
Been there, done that. It does not work.
The rest of your rant was too filled with lazy, avoidance mischaracterizations of liberalism to take seriously. I will simply say that you are another one who has been duped into believing that policies that benefit the wealthy are the same as policies that benefit the rest of us.
Please explain to me what I am mischaracterizing in liberalism? you won't argue because your position is indefensible
I am not the LAZY one. It is people like you who will not take responsibility for your own lives and instead look to the faux compassion of government to take care of you. That is the very definition of lazy.
I work just like you and I'd wager my income is lower. We've never had free-market health insurance. It's always been tied to the employer. The system needs reform. I weant affordable insurance also without it being a poor quality handout from thr gov't. Seems to me we can agree on this point
Everywhere the single-payer health system has been tried, low quality has been the hallmark. Of course, the "leaders" who implement the plan will have their own private system off to the side that you and I won't be able to access.
"There is no reason to assume that not for profit, single payer healthcare would be of low quality."
Perhaps you can give us an example of one that is high quality. Post office? VA? Those are 2 government run business's that seem to be quite, well ... you interpret their quality any way you want. I'm sure the medical services would be as acutely run as those other two are. But, I'm sure YOU have examples (maybe at least one) of high quality single payer healthcare.
It really is comical to have idiot liberals post the same old tired tripe and then when challenged claim the conservatives "aren't worth arguing with" t's because you people are mental midgets who can only regurgitate what the fear-mogering left has fed you for the past 50 years. PATHETIC.
None of you have any principles or any courage to think and act for yourselves.
Why don't you make an argument? Prove me wrong. Show me where the far left in this country has done anything but fight efforts to respond to the 9/11 attacks. They have beat down every aspect of this struggle with the self-serving goal of bringing down the party in power. Military leaders and individual soliders have been attacked endlessly and unfairly. So-called Democratic 'leaders' in Congress have declared the war lost.
We were told shortly after 9/11 that this would be unlike any other war, that it would take years that it would require constant vigiliance and that Afghanistan was just the beginning. We weren't lied to. This has turned out to be true. Sadly, the left hasn't the stomach for the fight and the reason is that the left doesn't have a dog in the fight. The left can't possibly choose America since she is too evil to get the left's support.
1. You Dems should not say a single, solitary word about Savage so long as you have Malloy polluting the airwaves. What Savage said was nothing compared to the comment that Malloy made today that Cheney was a "serial killer." This was hardly all he has said that was evident of the warped fantasy world he lives. Until you can clean up your own, you should focus inward.
2. Metaphorically, I agree with Savage. I see a gay agenda out there to force the lifestyle on America and attempt to force us to embrace it. I don't watch much television, but in the two shows I on ABC that I do watch as well as a third that I caught enough of to see, normalizing homosexuality was a central theme in all three at the end of the season.
1. I think it is ridiculous to suggest Cheney is a serial killer. I agree with you. The last time Cheney shot someone, he totally botched it. The guy lived.
2. Do you think television should make homosexuality seem abnormal or should they just never talk about it at all? Is it such an odd "agenda" to want to be treated as normal? Do you prefer to be treated like you are a freak or that you don't even exist?
By your reasoning anything you personally (or your religion) disapproves of is abnormal. How self-centered is that?
The fact is they are consenting adults. What does it matter to you? You are just enforcing your own preference and bias on everyone else.
1) malloy is on in the middle of the night so he has to compete with the lunatic conspiracy theorists
2) metaphorically speaking, cheney is a serial killer.
Take your own advice or go talk smack somewhere else.
"I see a gay agenda out there to force the lifestyle on America and attempt to force us to embrace it."
Saw an NRA bumper sticker the other day, it said, "If you don't like guns, don't buy one." It has nice message doesn't it? What I'm trying to say that if you don't like gay marriage, don't have one.
"I see a gay agenda out there to force the lifestyle on America and attempt to force us to embrace it."
The only gay agenda I've ever seen was a stylish lavender Day-Timer.

First off how do you "normalize" something that already is normal? It is normal for a homosexual to "act gay" - what is not "normal" is living in a closet of fear as so many homosexual men and women have been forced to do for so many years.
No one is forcing you to embrace anything. I see programs portraying lifestyles from a vast range of ethnic, racial, and social groups - Does this mean I should feel that I have to "embrace" and mimic all of them?
If people like you - or Savage - are so aghast by honest portrayals of homosexuals on television, then perhaps you should just lock your channels to the one showing Leave It To Beaver? I bet you never objected to any of the negative stereotypes of gays that have been portrayed on the TV and in movies in the past?
"The truth shall set you free."
The homosexual lifestyle is NOT normal. It is sexual deviency and the attempts to legitimize it in our culture are plain wrong if not dangerous.
The life expectancy for homosexual men is about 20 years less on average. That's compared to 10-14 years less for smokers. We discourage smoking at every turn, yet promote a lifestyle proven to be more dangerous. We truly live in bizarre times

What if your a six pack a day homosexual? Do you just shoot yourself? <heavy sarcasm>
Your problem is your ignorance. This country has endure years and years of ignorance before they got things right. There was a time when Native Americans were savages, African Americans were slaves, Asian Americans were held in concentration camps. THAT is not ignorance to be proud of and neither is your opinions on gays.
Once educated, you'll find not all gay men go crazy with lust when they see a man, heck your probably not even attractive to a gay man, they do have standards.
Your marriage is fine as long as YOU take care of business, gays have NOTHING to do with YOUR marriage. If your marriage is in trouble you and your spouse aren't' doing the work, the gay man down the street had NOTHING to do with it!
Gay folks have been around for years and years, they recently decided that since they contribute to this society they should not be treated as second class citizens. As a 73 years old African American, former second class citizen, I say they're right to demand equal treatment and I'll do anything I can to help!
That life expectancy issue is from several respected studies by government and independent sources in several countries. So you didn't really deal with any facts there did you? That's an example of your ignorance or just a closed mind to the truth.
That's correct my marriage is my responsibilty and it's my responsibility to raise my children and the mainstreaming of deviant behavior isn't helping.
As far as truncated life expectancy for gay men, it's none of your business. Since they don't shorten your life expectancy, it doesn't concern you.
As to your smoking anology, it simply doesn't apply. The only adverse affect of second hand homosexuality is your own personal annoyance. Second hand smoke, on the other hand, carries the risk of killing non-smokers.
And don't even bother with that normalizing homosexuality in our culture argument. I abhor violence, yet violence is normalized 24/7 on my tv and radio. So, I turn it off. I suggest you do the same when you see a man kiss a man on your tv. Then again, if you are seeing men kissing on tv, you're probably trying to see it.

I notice that you continue to talk about the "respected studies" but provide no proof. "Respected studies" cannot come from right wing nuts.

If gays are the worst of your problems, consider yourself lucky. A lot of parents are worried about feeding their kids, keeping a roof over their kids head, providing healthcare for their kids, keeping their kids from getting shot walking or attending school and preventing their kids from making a pact with their friends to get pregnant whole in school.
My point is, life is diffcult, raising kids is difficult but you don't have to add to the stress with "pretend" issues. Follow a simple rule, treat people as you want to be treated and remember, there was a time when white folks treated black folks the way you treat gays. I hope you realize how stupid that was.
but I will not legitimize a deviant lifestyle by granting them special rights.
THAT is your problem! They're not asking nor do they need YOUR permission, every person in this country has the same individual rights!
And that's exactly what they are asking for because currently all men and women have the right to marry.
Some people choose to have a religious person 'marry' them but they're not considered married unless the law has given permission. Some people choose NOT to have a religious person 'marry' them, they to the courthouse, that same courthouse where those 'marry by religious person' goes and get the same freaking license.
YOUR religion does not allow gay marriage but we aren't ruled by your religion, thank god! If religious people choose not to marry gays, fine, but it DOES NOT mean that gays cannot get married.
I see a gay agenda out there to force the lifestyle on America and attempt to force us to embrace it. I don't watch much television, but in the two shows I on ABC that I do watch as well as a third that I caught enough of to see, normalizing homosexuality was a central theme in all three at the end of the season.
This is the kind of crap you used to see and hear all the time 50 years ago, when i was a young child - only it was directed toward blacks. People didn't want to be forced to have their kids go to the same schools as blacks, they didn't want to sit at the same lunch counters as blacks - it was even illegal in many states for interracial couples to marry.
The only difference is that no one is using police dogs or fire hoses on gays. Yet....
My diagnosis is that this guy savage is suffering from the advanced stages of Syphilis.
If I could see the victim to examine him, I could know better (there being rashes and other marks upon the skin, in particular areas, that confirm the presence of the disease)... but without seeing the poor bastid, I would say from the fevered and obscene nonsense he spews, that yes, he is suffering from the advanced stages of Syphilis.
It only gets worse too... it's an ugly thing...
I suggest putting him down... I'm very sorry.

Bwaaahhh haaa haaaa ha haaaaaaa ya nailed it!!
Why does anyone have to know what you are doing in your bedroom? Is this the only thing that defines you? I am a bisexual woman and I NEVER talk about my sexual prefernces with anyone. I also do not care to see people slobbering all over each other be they gay, straight or whatever out in public. There is a time and a place for everthing. For those of you who think that homosexuality is normal, you make me laugh. I've hung around with many gay men and frankly I don't think it's normal to have sex in the Rambles in Central Park in broad daylight with a stranger or strangers in the woods like animals. Or how about the Meatrack on Fire Island or the Reststops on the LIE? are you gays proud of the gay Governer from New Jersey who wrote he was having sex behind a Synagog? I'm sure his young daughter will be tortured later in life by her daddy's own writings.But who cares about the kids right? As long as we all feel good anything goes. You know there are people who were raised to believe homosexuality is wrong and against God. How many gays actually encourage their children to adopt this very difficult lifestyle? I would never want my children to go thru what I and some of my friends have. It is a very difficult life. and it is the exception and not the rule and yes there are many gay people who think everyone is bisexual. My friend Nick goes out of his way to bed straight men and by the way many do try it, despite the fact the pigs have wives and girlfriends. And how many gay couples especially men do we know that have long term relationships? They are fwe and far between. let's give the kids a chance to grow up before we shove any sex down there throats.
