    I feel like I need to start passing a copy of this out like candy to everyone I know. Texas is not a fan of gay rights at all.

    That looks great (though I'll have to search to find it large enough to read).

    Sadly I've found that using logic with idiots is like reading to dogs. They just don't get it. Not only are they ignorant but often they take quite a bit of pride in the fact. You can use all the logic and sound reasoning you'd like, but their "Adam & Steve" argument uses funny word play so they think they've got you everytime.

    I simply take pleasure in knowing that everyday they're a little more outnumbered. Everyday progress is made. One day in the near future tolerance and understanding will be common enough that they'll keep their stupid opinions to themselves.

    ^^ I hope he's right about the people who are against gay rights becoming more outnumbered by the day. Really, they're living in a time when we shouldn't care about the gender of two consenting adults who want to get married. There are more important things to think about!!

    Not having read the material, I think we can start by not using the word "gay" when referring to rights. They're equal rights. When morons hear "gay rights" what they actually translate that into is "special rights."
