No one is forcing me to accept the "goodness" of adultery or divorce or of any other American pathology, save for homosexuality. I ought to be able to reject the normalization of homosexuality without any threat of law whatever - and I have repeatedly here given the basis allowing for said rejection. Should I have a business party, I ought to have legal freedom to reject even tacit support of homosexuality by making plain my desire not to have homosexual "couples" around my children at such gatherings. Indeed, I ought not be forced to hire homosexuals at all. I ought to be free to discriminate on the basis of any non-human behavior. I ought to be free not to pay health insurance for the homosexual lifestyle. I ought not be forced to pay benefits to homosexual spouses. There is an almost unfathomable list of things I ought not be forced to accept but that homosexual activists are intending to force me to accept regardless of what I think about it. No one is doing this with regard to any other sickness.

The issue for me is ultimately not about homosexuality. I literally would not care if homosexuals killed each other while engaged in consenual sex. After all, if that is what they wish to do, I say let them do it. For me, the issue concerns the freedom to live out my human identity to the fullest extent possible, without infringement.

I see clearly that as a result of homosexual activists and their leftist enablers, I am about to lose a significant portion of my freedom in America. We all are. But I care about such things, while many of us do not.

All rights and freedoms begin with the individual, with portions of them being given by the individual voluntarily to the state to facilitate community. That principle is being destroyed by the left such that should a small group of people decide to steal freedom to advance a pet cause, they employ ideological courts to do it - and the entire rest of the nation must just lump it.
