Rights, privileges denied
Can someone please explain how creating second-class citizens out of the gay, bisexual, lesbian and transgender community is for the greatest good?
I find it interesting that many of the people who actively campaign to accomplish this are at the same time actively working to secure all human rights for the unborn. So according to their logic, the unborn has more civil rights than a retired, combat-disabled Marine who just happens to be gay. Most of these people make their arguments based upon their religious beliefs, a belief that is constitutionally protected and a belief that I defended as a Marine for years.
However, the constitutionally protected right of religious belief cannot be used as the basis to deny rights and privileges of others based upon a perceived choice made by others.
Just to make sure I get this right, we want to protect and ensure basic human rights to the unborn at the same time we strip them away when an individual comes out as members of the gay, bisexual, lesbian and transgender community.
So much for equality and justice for all.
