What are you waiting for?
So, I just saw this status on some guy’s profile that
said, “If you have an equal sign avatar, you’re a douche.” Really? Does he
really want to go there? In 1215 with the Magna
Carta, we have our first documentation of civil rights. Here we are, 800
years and many renditions later, and the LGBT community still does not have the same rights as so many
humans across the world. This is not a lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender
issue. GET OVER IT!! It is a HUMAN RIGHTS issue. It does not concern you
personally. It is not going to harm you in any way. It does not take away any
of your rights. I saw a poster once and I loved it. On the top part were people
protesting same-sex marriage. On the bottom half were people protesting blacks
and whites going to schools together – they wanted segregation to stay. It
said, “50 years from now, do you want your face on this newspaper page?” Now we
look back at all the ignorant asses who were so awful throughout US history
towards blacks and Native Americans, YET is that not what Americans (in
general) are doing EXACTLY TODAY to the LGBT community? WHY? Because they fear
the unknown. "Oh my goodness – they are going to turn our kids, our grandkids,
our very beings gay!!!! Run for the hills!!!" WTF? It is not a disease! It is
not a choice, despite what many ignorant people may think. Who would
ever CHOOSE to be laughed at, ostracized from society – from their families
even, and treated like 3rd rate citizens?
Not sure what the equal sign means?

Dan Milano reports – “They’re popping up on Facebook news feeds around the
nation, but without much explanation. Just what are those red equal-sign
Facebook profile pictures all about? Look no further than the Human Rights
Campaign [HRC], an organization in support of gay marriage that is running a
particularly successful social media initiative as the Supreme Court discusses
the issue over the next two days. In a Facebook post today, the HRC asked
gay marriage supporters to “paint the town red,”
wearing red in their wardrobe as well on their Facebook pages, changing profile
photos over to the HRC “=” logo. The idea has even caught the eyes of Congress,
with 13 members showcasing the symbol, according to Ryan Beckwith.”
Now – quit being a bigoted jerk (to the one who had that on his profile) and for others, I hope you will think
hard about your stance on the issue.
