Why do USMB Republicans pretend they don't hate gays?

[deanrd]

Ask a conservative to tell you why they oppose marriage equality for gays, same sex marriage, what are the grounds for that opposition,

and see if any of them can give you an answer that is anything more than simply hostility towards gays.

They can't.

Still want to ignore even California voted no to gay marriage?



.

First of all, that vote was in 2008 and assed by a narrow margin. By 2013 much had changed.

In November 2008, after an ugly campaign that stirred emotions and split families along generational lines, California voters narrowly approved Proposition 8. The ballot initiative defined marriage as between a man and a woman and banned same-sex marriage in the Golden State.
Now, as the Supreme Court hears arguments from those challenging the law's constitutionality, we Californians have a message for the rest of the country: "Oops. Never mind."
A new Field Poll, released at the end of February, provides the evidence of what many of us here on the left coast have been sensing over the last 4½ years: When it comes to same-sex marriage, many California voters want a do-over. The survey shows that 61% of California voters now approve of it, with 32% opposed.Opinion: California wants a do-over on same-sex marriage vote - CNN.com

In addition it was never appropriate to put a matter of civil rights to a vote. That is not how our Constitutional Republic works

That's how it works for the right wing. We call it "mob mentality".

Well hey you guys want open borders, and want to invite people in who will kill a gay in a heartbeat because they despise gays. They are neither the left nor the right it's their religion.

Republicans have a long list of people they hate. Gays, Muslims, blacks, and women's rights being at the top of the list.

I'm no Republican, but like most of them I have no particular problem with any of those.

Democrats, however, are rapidly turning themselves into ignorant, ill-bred hive-minded vermin. Our own modern version of Brownshirts.

Oh those Democrats. Anti voter suppression. They even support education and healthcare. What awful people.

They should be like the "let them die and I hope it hurts" Republcians. Now those are "values".

Oh Dean, you and your lies. Pro-illegal voting, only supports sub-standard government education, only supports controlling people with healthcare, you certainly are awful.

Then, you shut down your brain and robotically spew left wing lies about Republicans.

Yes! Those very ones!

Anti voter suppression.

Yup. Who dares suppress the vote of illegals and dead people? Certainly not those Democrats, eh?

They even support education and healthcare.

Nope. They support the ignorance of the masses and redistribution of someone else's money.

What awful people.

They really are!

I remember the shooting at Orlando and the many Republicans who posted all over the Internet, things like: He didn't kill enough and next time, let's hope they get more.

Then you have many right wing preachers who flat out say they want gays killed.

Look at what they did in Uganda.

Even as far back as Mitt Romney, we have some USMB Republicans insisting that Republicans didn't hate gays. When it became known Romney had a gay advisor, the advisor was drummed out of the campaign.

I think it's better that Republicans embrace their hatred rather than sending out a hypocritical double message.

i don't think most of them offer any pretense about how much they hate anyone who isn't white, male, christian and heterosexual.

If you left these questions to the will of the people, there would be states that still prohibit interracial marriage. Do you also disagree with the Loving v. Virginia decision? If not , how is it different from Obergefell? And don't bother blathering about how race is different from sexual orientation. I 'm talking about legal theory and the role of the courts.

Civil unions were too close to marriage for social conservatives so they helped spearhead legislation that banned them in twenty states. The idea that 'no one cared about civil unions' is totally inaccurate.

It is a civil rights issue because gay people were being denied civil marriage while opposite sex couples -who in the language of the court were "similarly situated" were denied marriage,' and because there was no compelling government interest- not even a rational basis -for denying them marriage. You should read the constitution some time, especially the 14th Amendment

Regarding civil unions- in addition to the fact that many bigots opposed any legal recognition of same sex marriage -civil unions were not really equal even if they appeared to be on paper. It is just another separate but equal ploy from the right

I could ask: WHY are liberals such big hypocrites about animosity? They try to hide all that rancor and hate of theirs under the holier-than- thou guise of fighting hate. How ironic. Liberals act so conceited and self righteous, they are becoming a hate group. Absolutely intolerant jerks, but they want to "END HATE"? Who is kidding WHO here?
