How to spot an anti-gay idiot

3 mistakes anti-gay idiots tend to make when discussing LGBT issues.

1) They reduce it all down to sex.

2) They assume it's all a matter of choice.

3) They lump it all together with things it is not, things like bestiality.

Mr. Duck Dynasty made all three ASSumptions right out of the chute, so much for his down home wisdom.

Because that's the way these idiots seem to think gay relationships work. Like no other aspects of attraction or feelings are involved at all.

Virtually every hateful, ugly and bigoted comment they make about gay folks concentrates on the sexual aspect (and almost always the backside)...they have absolutely no concept of simple things like love, caring, affection, loyalty and commitment. I'm no psychiatrist but it seems clear to me that they're obsessed with the clinical details and probably a lot of guilt. It's sad, really.

I think this is just one in a series of media/online sideshows we'll see on our slow, sometimes-stupid national lurch toward more enlightened thinking. Bread and circuses, along with 140 characters of gibberish from Sarah Palin because free speech! The least the NSA could do for us to atone for their sins would be to block these hillbilly-to-hillbilly packets at the major Internet peering points, while they're being unconstitutional and all. Anyway, welcome to DU.

You'll get a few here and there that will rag on lesbians, but not many.

Perhaps he was just tired of the reality TV series and wanted out of the contract.

But then again, if his comments about African-Americans in the South are any example, maybe he is just stupid and dim-witted.
