The
homosexual rights movement has been working overtime in
an effort to cover their demand for same-sex "marriage"
with the mantle of the African-American civil rights movement.
There's only one problem - African-Americans disagree.
Poll data shows that African-Americans are firmly against
same-sex "marriages" and there is growing evidence
that they resent the civil rights movement being exploited
by homosexual rights activists.
Senator
John Kerry ran into a buzz saw in Mississippi at a town
meeting yesterday when an African-American woman, Emma
White,
angrily confronted him for comparing homosexuality to
race. Responding to Kerry's comments, White told Senator
Kerry, "My point is homosexuality is an idea. You
have never heard a doctor say, 'Mr. and Mrs. John Doe,
you have a bouncing baby homosexual." I have been
approached by some leading African-American pastors who
are ready to go public with their own objections to the
"hijacking" of the civil rights movement by
so-called "gay activists." Even the Reverend
Jesse Jackson has objected to the comparisons!
Columnist
Jeff Jacoby hit the nail on the head with this comparison,
"The civil rights movement for which (Martin Luther
King) lived and died was grounded in a fundamental truth:
All God's children are created equal. The same-sex marriage
movement, by contrast, is grounded in the denial of a
fundamental truth: The Creator who made us equal made
us male and female. That duality has always and everywhere
been the starting point for marriage."
