[Hillary pledges to expand gay rights]

I never understand upsetting 50 percent to lure 3 percent. But then, it's not really about homosexuals. It's about silencing the Christians.

Pie Chart on it's way



Anyway, there's more than 3% of the population who is either for gay marriage, or really doesn't give a damn one way or the other.

"I never understand upsetting 50 percent to lure 3 percent."

so what about the 47% that this has no effect on?

Antichrist, that is the single greatest image I have seen in my life to date. Bravo.

If Hillary was outright promising to shut up the homophobe fundietards, I might vote for her.

I like how fundies always make the percentage of the population that's gay out to be way less than it is. More proof that they're just afraid.

I never understood why giving basic rights to *small percentage of homosexuals* upsetted *Larger group of morons who oppose it* even though it really has nothing to do with them.

Okay, so we're upsetting 50 percent (that must be the anti-gay bigots) to lure 3 percent (which is apparently the gays). So what about the other 47%? Wouldn't that be straight people who are pro gay rights? So what we have is 50% pro and 50% con.

I think a more accurate comment would be "I never understand upsetting 50 percent to lure 50 percent." Oh really? You don't?

And that's assuming that these numbers are accurate (which they aren't).

It's about not giving a damn what Republicans (who won't vote for her under any circumstances) want.

It's never been about silencing you. It's about un-silencing us.

Aw. I love all the responses that say, 'read the bible so you'll know you're supposed to hate and repress them queers! Keep 'em in the closet!' God, they act like treating gay people like people will ruin America. Nice. Christian loooove.

And Hilary is a Christian, anyway, people. Jeez...

It's about silencing the Christians.

Funny, it's the fundie christians that are the loudest of the bunch.

yeah, like you fundies are the 'silent majority'. If anyone believes that, I have this green statue in NY Harbor for sale.

The rights of the minority shall not to be infringed by the whim of the majority.

We're a republic, we elect representatives to ensure everyone has rights, even if the majority doesn't want them to.

It's more like upsetting 1% to please 10%.

Almost 50 years ago, you'd have said the same about the rights of the black people in the South, when Jack Kennedy was the candidate.

If Christians would stop trying to deny basic civil rights to a group they hate it would help.

If small minorities don't deserve rights because they are small minorities, where does that leave Truly Saved™ True Christian™ fundies?

Fuck you and the persecution complex you rode in on. The percentage of gay people is 10%, not 3%, and the percentage of people who support gay rights whether they're gay or not is larger than that. Being pro-gay isn't going to hurt Clinton, not that she still has a chance, because all the bigoted twatwaffles are people who wouldn't vote for her ANYWAY.
