I, for one, am sick to death of hearing about these so called 'Gay Rights'.
Many of the 'rights' that are claimed are actually things which are denied to everyone, but the gays seem think they are a special case.
As an example, one of the squares in London had the foliage trimmed as part of normal 'tidying up'. The sexual activities of the gays who 'cruised' in this square could then be seen by the local residents, who complained. The gays then argued that the bushes should be allowed to grow back so they could continue their activities. The point is that these same activities between heterosexuals would still be illegal - why were the gays demanding special circumstances for themselves?
We don't see special interest groups being set up for heterosexuals, with millions in public money and grants being put aside, why should homosexuals expect special treatment. If they want to be treated the same as everyone else, they should start acting the same as everyone else, but instead the seem to want to continually bring attention to themselves. I think that in many cases (particularly in showbusiness) they are actually just trying to get themselves noticed.
In a later post you mentioned something about "the facts". Where are the facts in this rant? All I see is part of some story about the shrubs and alot of generalizations.
