I just posted an article regarding the Indianapolis City Council defeating a bill that would have prohibited discrimination against GLBTs in jobs and housing.
Five Democrats voted against the bill
And last night, I guess there were some very homophobic posts on here by someone who was described as a long-time poster
Why do some Democrats and progressives, and yes I know that the two groups aren't necessarily the same, believe that homophobia is still acceptable?
People say that they're for gay rights but against same-sex marriage. Or you just get some people who don't think that gay rights should even be an issue. We should sweep it under the rug "until people are ready for it."
When do you think that is going to be? What in the hell does the gay community have to do to let y'all know that some people will NEVER be ready for it.
How long do y'all expect us to sit in the back of the bus?
