Prop 8...Dont Ask Dont Tell...whats next? Dont even get me started on healthcare

I am really getting sick of all these bad things that keep happening to openly gay people. It really pisses me off that they are not treated equally because of their sexual orientation. To be honest, if I had the time to write this more eloquently I would, but its FUCKED UP TO TREAT PEOPLE LIKE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS, for any reason! You cant help what sex you prefer. Its something that a person is born with. Do you know how many gay people I know who have told me that they wouldnt have "chosen" this path? It is a very difficult thing for a person to go through because of all the judgements and restricitions that are put upon you from the day you come out. Do all people not deserve equal rights is the "land of the free??" Land of the free my ass! We are living in the fucking stoneage, behind other countries even who had some of the same, BULLSHIT policies and have since changed them. I thought this was the year for change Mr. President? I thought this was the year we would all come together and ladi da? What happened to that?! Why are we waiting on this? Why is this on the back burner?! I am really upset by this.

Just read this:

Lessons from Australia, Canada, Israel, and Britain




Each of the four countries studied reversed its gay ban for different reasons. In Canada, federal courts forced the armed forces to lift the ban in October 1992, ruling that military policy violated Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms. In Australia, the liberal government of Prime Minister Paul Keating voted to lift the ban in November 1992 as the country was integrating a number of international human rights conventions into its domestic laws and codes. In Israel, the military lifted its ban in June 1993 after dramatic Knesset hearings prompted a public outcry against the armed forces' exclusion of gay and lesbian soldiers. And in Britain, in September 1999, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that Britain's gay ban violated the right to privacy guaranteed in the European Convention on Human Rights, and London reacted by lifting the ban in January 2000. Despite the different routes that led to the policy ...

Canada. Fucking CANADA has overturned this and we havent? Are you KIDDING ME?

Now I dont know about you, but I cant believe that more people arent speaking up about this! How can people not speak up for BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS AND FREEDOM FOR ALL PEOPLE?

What happened to Liberty and justice for all? Do people even know the meaning of Liberty?

Liberty is a concept of political philosophy and identifies the condition in which an individual has the right to act according to his or her own will.
