[quote=Anonymous]I think that it is too easy to scapegoat Black Americans in this. Certainly the gay community would do well to build relationships and not compare our struggles apples to apples with that of the struggles of the civil rights movement. The fact remains however that people ARE murdered because of their real or perceived sexual orientation, kids are killing tthemselves due to harassment, we lack basic protections in housing and Workplace discrimination. So there are some similarities. I think if we could move past a visceral reaction to a place of civil dialogue we could get much further. But it is difficult to do so if people can't get past the idea of sinning. If we are all indeed sinners at least let me be able to protect my family through marriage. I will in return overlook your divorces or out of wedlock kids. [/quote]
