RE: Ryan's Statement Regarding My Earlier R. Kelly/Sanctity of Marriage Post

RYAN SAYS: "R. Kelly isn't furthering any heterosexual agenda, my friend. In fact, he's doing a good job of messing it up. I understand the resentment from the GLBT community regarding the marriage issue, but you need to step back and realize that R. Kelly has nothing to do with gay marriage rights, equal employment protection or anti-bullying laws. He's simply a dumbass who likes to screw kids. Pointing out the obviousness of his sexuality and preferences serves the gay community no purpose (partly because R. Kelly's not married anymore). Frustrations aside, as much as 95% of the general population are heterosexual and in order to get your agenda recognized as a priority, calling us breeders as derogatory slang and pointing out our flaws will only make you appear radical in the eyes of the middle (who you need to convince). Write about the good. Write about your hopes and aspirations. Don't write non-relevant hate speech and wonder why no one listens.

MY RESPONSE: First, I'm not crying over here in my post toasties wondering why no one listens. The hate speech comes in moments of frustration and generally those offended by it give some high and mighty speech about how they don't think treating others the way that they have treated you is the way to go inorder to solve an issue. I would agree with them, but at the same time I find it interesting that when the chance to pay back black people comes in the form of affirmative action people all of a sudden have issues with the use of preferential treatment in regards to hiring and promotion in the workplace. I find it interesting that when a heterosexual realizes they are spoken badly of and labeled with derogatory slang terms to describe them that all of a sudden slang terms are a problem, yet they use them on the daily until it affects them directly. People hate tasting their own medicine so I figure if I let them taste it they may see what minority communities have dealt with for years, and perhaps if they have to deal with it even half as much as minorities do they will think twice before doing it or allowing others to do it around them. As far as Mr. Kelly goes you are right in that he furthers no agenda other than his own, but my point is that when heterosexuals protest and vote against measures that would give homosexuals more equal rights they use arguments about protecting the family and the sanctity of marriage when it is clear they really don't care about that or they would be protesting guys like this one instead of ignoring him and/or sending their kids off to his concerts as well as attending themselves and buying his albums. So you see the point was not not to say that Mr. Kelly is helping any agenda against equality, but that he is doing the opposite yet without the same opposition that we as homosexuals receive on a daily basis. With regards to your statement about Mr. Kelly not being married you are right, but the reason for that is because he failed to protect children, family and the sanctity of his own marriage by sleeping with a child. With regards to your claim that 95% of the population is heterosexual I will simply say that you may want to seek out some actual statistics as opposed to guestimates before stating numbers. Census reports are a good place to start though they do not consider the entire population so it is not completely accurate.

Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 8

She says "it's the death now of this country...I honestly think it's the biggest threat that our nation has even more so than terrorism...or Islam, which I think is a big threat." So apparently if I sleep with my girlfriend in the privacy of our own home and then expect not to be killed for it by a Christian Terrorist who is fighting for the world to be forced to live by their standards I am threatening society more than a terrorist. I only wish that my sex was so the bomb that it could actually create one. I wonder what her basis for this belief is? The majority of homosexuals are peaceful people who don't harm a flea. The most frequent molestation of children is committed by straight men, the majority of serial killers are straight men, the most frequent amount of killing in current times is committed in mass quantities in the name of Christianity, hate crimes against minorities are most frequently committed by straight white males. So what exactly is the threat? What is so threatening about someone sleeping with a consenting same sex adult of sound mind in the privacy of their own home and then coming out of their home with the expectation of safety? What is so threatening about someone wanting the right to marry who they want or to have health benefits? If this is a threat to our national security then how do we choose which groups are a threat when they get these privileges and which ones are not? In this country we have already had laws on the books banning marriage between blacks and between inter-racial couples until it was deemed unconstitutional (which took years). Let's get over it and either let every consenting adult of sound mind get married to whomever they choose and receive the benefits that are included in that group or let's ban everyone who shouldn't get married. Let's toss people who have broken the sanctitiy of marriage by adultry, wife beating, or divorce into jail. (that includes all those preachers you hear about all of the time) Lets create a system so that before you can marry or breed you must pass an IQ test and if you pass that you must then take a parenting test and take it again and again until you pass before being permitted to marry and breed. Then once we do that we can toss parents in jail who failed to protect their children from harm, to keep them out of jail, to keep them from bullying others, to keep them from shooting up schools, to pass their classes etc. etc. I mean if our laws are made for protecting the sanctity of marriage and family don't you think it only makes sense to heavily punish those who have received health benefits and other benefits under a false promise to abide by such laws? Hey! I have an idea... while we are at it let's make this a communist country!!
