ah, so no rights were taken awayreally? what rights were taken away?cause they're the ones who are hypocrites... voting to take away the rights of their fellow gays while doing whatever while they're hiding in their closet.
Serve in the military? If Larry Craig were held to the standard of sexual conduct he imposes on the U.S. armed forces, he'd be out of his job.
Fourteen years ago, in his first term as a Republican senator from Idaho, Craig helped to enact the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. It stipulates:
A member of the armed forces shall be separated from the armed forces under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Defense if one or more of the following findings is made and approved in accordance with procedures set forth in such regulations: (1) That the member has engaged in, attempted to engage in, or solicited another to engage in a homosexual act or acts unless there are further findings that the member has demonstrated that(A) such conduct is a departure from the member's usual and customary behavior; (B) such conduct, under all the circumstances, is unlikely to recur; [and] the member does not have a propensity or intent to engage in homosexual acts.
Florida has become the 27th state to ban gay marriages and civil unions. This is sad because the people were allowed to take away the rights of some. This means that the country has taken one step forward with electing an African American President, but three steps backwards by taking away the right of gay persons to live life as others do.
Arkansas has passed a bill that will not allow single persons to adopt, which means that gay adoptions are banned. What will happen to the children that need homes? The children are going to suffer and the American people in Arkansas felt this was okay. What kind of person wants to hurt the children? Monsters hurt children that need loving homes.
Arizona voters have vote for a ban on gay marriages. They join Florida in taking away the rights of gay persons in that state. This is such a sad day when no one can open their eyes and see that they are dictating the rights of some while others can have rights.
