Your torpor is palpable. Defend murderers.....no. Defend a whole religion from the bigotry of the right......yes. There are billion and a third Muslims in the world.............your statements condemn all of them.The gays have not been targeted. The non-gays have been targeted with the gay agenda to rub our noses in their lifestyle. Gays make you watch them have sex? Gays make you go to their clubs? How exactly have gays rubbed your nose in their lifestyle, meld? The gays can go on doing what they want and they are even free to form civil unions if the states will let them. So how does that translate into being targeted? Oh give me a break. Just like with Hitler and the Jews, the gays are being blamed for the moral decay of our country. The fundamentalists suggest that allowing gays to be free and to enjoy the privileges and freedoms the rest of us have is symptomatic of a society in decline. Please don't tell me you haven't heard horrific comments made against gays by Evangelical ministers like Robertson, Falwell and Roberts. Just the way you speak of them shows your disdain and distaste. Its the way some Germans spoke of the Jews.........after all, Hitler was not the only Jew hater in Germany or the world. We knew for years that Hitler was exterminating the Jews and we did nothing.And how have Muslims been targeted? They targeted the U.S. and killed 3,000 people. So when we fight back and fight back hard, you and they dare claim that Muslims are the victims? Does Van Goh feel that Muslims are the victims? Do the 3,000 dead feel that Muslims are the victims? The Muslims have killed 4k Americans. We have killed over 100k. You do the math.You are just like the defense lawyer trying to acquit the murderer because he had a hard life. Grow up and shed your bias. Assign blame where it belongs. And you are someone who is no better than a vigilante party........executing people left and right because you can't get to the actual perpetrator.As far as two countries, one blue and one red, be careful what you ask for. According to this breakdown, a blue country carved out of the U.S. would be very small indeed:electoral-vote.com Make sure you scroll down to the country by county red vs blue breakdown. Shocked? You shouldn't be. You are in the minority Like I've said before, under each pixel of blue there are many thousands to millions; under each pixel of red there are hundreds. Again, you do the math.
