Just a disclaimer.
Christian-Conservatives always love to play the victim whenever they can. It doesnt matter what it is, they are always the ones who are being discriminated against.
That is why conservative heads exploded during the 2014 Grammy Awards last night when a mass wedding of 33 straight and gay couples said their vows and were joined in marriage while being serenaded my Mackelmore and Mary Lamberts hit song Same Love.
Same Love was written in support of legalizing same-sex marriage, being not only a moral issue with Mackelmore, but a personal one, being that his uncle has been in a committed same-sex relationship for decades.
But apparently, while the Christian-Conservatives of America are using the government to tell gay and lesbian individuals who they cannot marry and adopt, they have the audacity to claim that they themselves are the ones being discriminated against.

Sorry if this is a bit old. But I came across it last night and felt it hit the nail on the head in exposing the audacity of these assholes.

(52,196 posts)at least that's their way of thinking.
all those civil rights for blacks, for instance, that's just a limitation on restaurant owners freedom to refuse to serve black people, etc.
you really have to think of gays, blacks, muslims, etc., as "others" (at best, second-class citizens or even vermin at worst) for this kind of self-absorbed thinking to make sense.
