The reason we got out of Vietnam was because hordes of protesters in every city were protesting it which made it pretty hard for the press to gloss over it and the government to spin it. The problem is that we honestly believe we are doing a disservice to our men and women in arms if we protest today which couldn't be further from the truth. The real truth is we just don't care to protest and have our rights heard. It takes work and we like complacency, and until it happens in our own backyard we aren't going to stand up and get noticed.

Religion does have so much to answer for. But this is the reason why we must be out, why we must hold hands I public and not be ashamed of who we are. Only through being visible can our countries recognize us and then with our support tackle the horrible acts of violence on gay men and women around the world.
