Rip Apart the Foundation Stones, Collapse into Depravity: B&E

I've said it before that I have no issue with Adam wanting to marry Steve. If you do not hurt others (and, yes, things like NAMBLA do promote the hurting of others), your proclivities are your own business and the libertarian in me is a firm believer that government has no business in most aspects of our lives otherwise.

Just as I can't stand the government trying to control all aspects of my life (my betters do it for my own good, of course), I can't stand proselytizers of any stripe.

Yeah, maybe this has been an ongoing joke and/or rallying cry for decades but it still absolutely disgusts me no less each time it rears it's f#<k!ng ugly head:

I am a child of Sesame Street, from some of its earliest years. Bert and Ernie were a staple of my childhood long before the tyranny of the Elmo gang took the street over.

Whether coming from someone of Jerry Falwell's bent, where there's a homosexual plot in every cultural nuance, or this. This is an in-your-face activism that cares only about the message with complete disregard for the damage it can do. Some things are exactly as they are.

To any :conservatives" who kept insinuating that Bert and Ernie were gay as a means to show the evils of infiltration of homosexuality, I have to ask just what the hell you're repressing within to see this in everything.

To members the gay community pushing things like this, I cry bullshit. This week's (and others) court decisions don't give you the right to flaunt it in the faces of the reset of us like some drag queen's scarf on Commercial Street in P-Town. You do that, you've now made it my business and I say, F#<k You. Maybe the other side's more right than I used to think and, way to go, making me not want to see your side of things.

To either side, spraying me down with cold water doesn't make me want to hold your respective hose.
