76% of Brits Don’t Mind If Gays Serve in the Cabinet. 100% Shouldn’t Have Been Asked the Question

If the BBC can ask web visitors whether Uganda’s gays should “face execution,” what’s wrong with The Sun quizzing readers on whether gays should serve in the cabinet?

Hurray! David Laws’ “rent boy” scandal (hah, see what we did there?) has succeeded in drawing the British press into the obvious trap of questioning whether one gay person’s stupid mistakes reflect negatively on us all.
