I don't really give a shit about gays, or what they do. Only when I see stuff like this does it become a problem because I don't think they deserve any special attention or privilege. Minorities need special dispensation and protection because of their inherent social status but let's put governmental issues aside. If a gay community wants to have a parade here, they need a parade permit. They pay for the right to it like any other social or ethnic group. The article talks about hosting their own convention, I don't see the problem with that, they will be paying for the space after all. Why does a Christian group or a gun club get to host rallies but not gay people? You could still attend if you want to, the majority of minority hosted events are all about acceptance and rarely close their doors to the public.
There is no need or reason to feel threatened by minority groups. They are people the same as you. They celebrate their status largely because of it being repressed for so long. As these things become more accepted and engrained into society they will become less and less newsworthy. |
