Why is the GOP so scared of gay people?

Some of my thoughts:
Although homophobia has dropped off over the years and continues to do so this puts much more stress on homosexuals particularly when they are young. They lack support systems and support from family members are targets of violence and feelings of not fitting in.

That's the bullies costing us more, not the gays. You're blaming the victim.
--- End quote ---
I am not blaming anyone Anne.

Yes you are. You're saying that because they are "targets of violence" is one of the "reasons" they cost us more ::) Ridiculous on it's face, but also blaming the victim.
--- Quote ---We could argue that it is the families fault for not supporting them, the bullies fault for bullying them, societies fault for not doing a better job educating the bullies. The Republicans fault for not supplying the funding for education to educate the bullies etc.

You just can't help yourself, can you?
Anne Bonney:
--- Quote from: "Samara" ---This is totally ridiculous. I work with straight right wing nuts and believe me, they can start their own pharmacy with their various neuroses. I got gay friends who developed such strength of character through the outing process, they have more sanity than any of us.

Whooter:
--- Quote from: "Anne Bonney" ---Then state it as your opinion instead of stating it as fact. "They tend to use drugs and alcohol more often to cope and have higher incidences of suicide and suicide attempts." requires a citation to support the claim if you're gonna state it like that.
--- End quote ---
Well, it isnt really my opinion. Its based on reading I have done on the subject.

You can't be a real person. I mean, no one is this obtuse. You've got to be some kind of super spambot.

I am sorry the conversation escapes you Anne. But I am happy that you can find some humor in the subject.
