Whew, another long day at work. I hate going back on Monday’s, it’s such a drag on my well relaxed body to have to get up and trek my lazy ass into work. I think I’ll win the lottery and sit on my butt the rest of my life. If only.
I know I preach to the choir quite often on this blog but for you heterosexuals out there who are reading this (which likely is my primary audience), I feel that I have at least a small obligation to provide you with accurate information to combat all the mis-information you have received over your lifetime about homosexuals. This blog is my activism outlet you see. I don’t take to the streets with signs and I don’t get into heated public arguments with people about this or really about anything. It’s just not my style. I get my opinions out in writing for anyone to see and I welcome challenges to those opinions…provided you eventually agree with my point of view. Well, you don’t have to agree, but you do at least have to be nice to me and respect that we can agree to disagree. So, those of you in Michigan, it’s important for you to know the arguments out there that want to keep me pinned down as a second class citizen. Michigan you see has already declared through it’s Constitution that my existence doesn’t count, that I am not worthy of marriage, that it’s OK to fire me from my my job simply for being gay, that it’s OK by the laws of Michigan to prevent my partner from making medical decisions for me should I ever be incapacitated and not able to do so for myself. You’re right, most of those don’t apply to me directly, right now, at this particular minute in my life but they have in the past and they will in the future. So my voice is here on this blog for anyone to read because I can. Because I can change minds and hearts through words just as my opponents can harm me through words of their own. So I’ll get off my soap box now and take off my tin-foil hat and let you watch the video below. Take note of the issues presented as they are the issues that are being used to keep me down. You’ll see, none of them are legitimate but those making those arguments sure seem to think so.
