Yet, so many people desperately need someone or some group to marginalize so they can feel better about themselves (or at least use as an excuse for their own personal failings). Many Republicans and a good deal of Christians in this country have gotten a lot of mileage by attempting to demonize/marginalize the GLBT community. If this country is stupid enough to elect another Republican president this time around, esepcially after the gross tragedy of this current administration - well, we deserve whatever downward direction we go in.

Why not spend these resources on things that would help educate tolerance and acceptance? What about homelessness? Children without toys on holidays? Is shooting hardship to other Americans what these folks really do for sport these days? I believe too many people have too much time and money on their hands. Why don't we have a "stupid" tax?
