“By claiming their relationships are normal, homosexuals are trying to influence the Government to legally bless their unions. They hope to indoctrinate society to accept it…. Abnormal sexual preference, even when it becomes ‘normal” to an individual due to abnormal circumstances can be controlled.

We are coming to a point where all the reasoning and informative talking the gay community and it’s reps can do to explain who we are as people will just fall on angry, deaf ears and their propoganda and hate speech will continue to spread until little acts of violence again gay people and their families becomes more and more practiced and accepted.

I wish whoever the crank on here is who is trying to assume my screenname would stop it.
This kind of hiding your identity makes comments on here less worth reading, because it distorts their own and others’ reputations that have accumulated with your comment history.
If you want to start over, use a screenname that another is not using.

The Real John – just get an account and no one can hide behind your name.
Or perhaps it’s possible there are simply two people called John in this big wide world, and the other one doesn’t think he should have to make up a name when his original one will do.
