Watch Out If You're Opposed To Queer Nation

Is it just me, or is this country going downhill EXTREMELY fast since Obama was elected? And he still has 60-something days till he assumes his dicktatorship. It surely does not bode well, seeing what the next 4 years may have in store for us. Maybe its time to find that island in the south Pacific, or some other country to live in temporarily till the country straightens itself out. Or, a more radical idea, the country should just divide itself. The Left-Wingers can move (AND STAY) west of the Mississippi, and the Conservative Right-Wingers can stay east of the Mississippi. We will then have the United States of America (East Coast) and ObamaQueerNation (West Coast).

Speaking of dicks..

I thought I would take a break on my Anti-Obama tirade(s) of late, to address another issue that has dominated the news since our General Election on November 4th. I previously blogged about QueerNation/HomoPhobia. It appears that the homosexuals in our nation are not happy as of late, and if you don't support them, prepare for the onslaught.

Opponents of gay marriage in California are suffering the effects of a childish tantrum thrown by those who lost on Proposition 8. There have been attacks on Mormons for leading the fight for the ballot initiative as well as racial slurs hurled at African Americans because 70% of them voted "Yes" to define marriage as between a man and a woman.

Now these activists have taken their derangement to another level; they are publishing lists of ordinary people and businesses who donated to the "Yes on 8" coalition:

In addition to protests, gay activists have begun publishing lists online exposing individuals and organizations who have donated money in support of Proposition 8. On AntiGayBlacklist.com, individuals who gave money toward Proposition 8 are publicized, with readers urged not to patronize their businesses or services. The list of donors was culled from data on ElectionTrack.com, which follows all contributions of over $1,000 and all contributions of over $100 given before October 17. Dentists, accountants, veterinarians and the like who gave a few thousand dollars to the cause are listed alongside major donors like the Container Supply Co., Inc. of Garden Grove, Calif., which gave $250,000. "Anyone who steps into a political fight aimed at taking away fundamental rights from fellow citizens opens themselves up to criticism," said Wolfson. "The First Amendment gives them the right of freedom of speech and to support political views, but people also have the right to criticize them."
This is stupid and self defeating. Rather than trying to change their opinion, they are making these people enemies for life. And carrying out in such a manner like this against people who oppose gay marriage based on their religious beliefs borders on bigotry.

There are other means of protest to make your displeasure known than targeting individuals. The ONLY thing this childish attitude accomplishes is that it will alienate the "straight" voters and such propositions will have their fate sealed next time its on the ballot.

Just a final thoughts. Where is the ACLU to protect these individuals and business owners right and privacy to contribute to political issues? Isn't it in their charter to support ALL citizens civil liberties? If they just want to support the radical left, they should change their name to reflect it. Last time I checked, the political process is our most fundamental right and obligation as Americans. It's amazing that those who supported "Prop 8" are not publishing lists of businesses and individuals who financially supported the "Vote No" on Proposition 8. Maybe we should take the fight to their level. We are more educated and mature than that. Thats why it will never happen.

Why do fags always think the "straight" people are out to get them? Are they heterophobic?
