12 year old (and 20 year old and 40 year old) bullies have always been around to call somebody who is different their cruel names. We have all gotten over that. Now I am told that I can't marry the love of my life, who I have been with for 23 years, have been through the death of our parents with, have been through illness, losing pets, 9/11, everything else with - - -because marrying him would be the same thing as child molesting. According to Rick Warren. Obama's friend who will be praying to Jesus at the inauguration.

What were you thinking, Barack? That "reaching out" to those with different (hateful) thought processes is important, according to your slick press release defending the decision? That's what I heard about Donnie McClurkin, with his "God delivered meeeeee! From homosexualityyyyyyyy!!!!" monologue, delivered at a Barack Obama event in October of '07. I was told it was only one song (lie), that things would change once Obama won (lie, evidently)....

"1 man + 1 woman has been the definition of marriage for 5,000 years" says Warren. Hate speech? No, thats just what you call a lie. Who's redefining marriage now? It was the law of California until Prop 8.

If you called me a faggot, would that be hate speech? Well, yes. Would it be worse than being called a child molester? If those are the choices, I will take "faggot" back. Although I would prefer my civil rights back first. And not to have somebody who calls me a child molester being given the national stage on a day that I had been looking forward to celebrating.
