I am so sick of the same ignorance being repeated over and over. I have been fighting for my rights and the rights of other gay people for over 25 years. In all that time the arguments against gays has never changed, not one bit. The arguments are the same discredited BS as was spewed 25 years ago. Sometimes it is the same old people that have been publicly discredited over and over just repeating the same ignorant BS they know is a lie. Other times it is new faces spewing the ignorance they were taught. I am so sick of it.
Because most of the ranting comes from the most adamant homophobes, it seems like the noise is not going away, indeed it often seems it is getting louder.
I want to live my life in peace. I don't want to feel I have to defend myself from ignorant statements that were discredited decades ago. I want to be able to walk down the street with the person I love without fear of bing attacked. I don't want to fight people that think their unfounded beliefs give them the right to attack me, I want them to leave me alone. I don't think that is too much to ask.
People that oppose gays and gay marriage, you are hateful bigots. It does not matter if your unfounded beliefs make you think your hateful behavior is actually love, it is still hate.
