Gay rights.

Once again I was in Government. Today we watched Journeys with George. An actually interesting and funny movie, even if I’m not a Bush fan. Whatever. Not the point. My point is, when there were about 20 minutes left in class, a guy came on the screen with a sign that said “Vote Bush because gay people have too many rights.” My reaction: “WTF?! Isn’t this a free country?!” I was appalled. After all isn’t it in our constitution that ALL ME ARE CREATED EQUAL? So according to that guy, gays aren’t men or what? I mean, if you’re gonna say gays have too many rights, I guess women and blacks do too right? And so must men period, if we’re going by “all men are created equal”.
Seriously. How can you claim to represent a free country and try to take away a person’s rights due to their sexual preference, which is, btw, PERSONAL. It is no one’s business but what someone’s sexual preference but their own, someone they’re dating, and perhaps their friends. If someone at school or work is gay, how is that my business? Whether I know them or not? That’s like saying two people dating is my business. It’s not. It’s THEIR business. The two people dating. So what’s the difference if it’s two boys(not ok), two girls(ok when kissing, b/c its “hott”… wtf?), or a guy and a girl(ok)? There isn't one. except for the way we perceive it.
It’s still no one else’s business but the two people dating!
Just like it’s not our business if someone has a mental disorder. Are we taking their right’s away? No. Because it’s NONE of our business.
So why don’t we worry more about not discriminating based on something that’s personal. After all, would you want someone to judge you on something personal?
