Are you saying that because we tolerate one injustice we have tolerate all injustices? Gosh, no. Where did that come from? I'm saying we should address the real problem, not act against a proxy for the problem. If the problem is kids not having one parent of each sex, then let's make sure that they do, not deny marriage to same sex couple who probably aren't going to raise kids anyway. Likewise, if we have a problem with anal sex, then lets attack that, not homosexuals who may or may not be having anal sex while ignoring heterosexuals who have anal sex. I believe the term for this is scapegoating. You may have heard of it. It's a manifestation of bigotry, or so I understand...
