People are people, human rights violations are human rights violations. Amirite?
Exactly. I want my sports and politics separate just as much as the next guy or gal, but it's just not realistic. Everybody's got bills to pay, and a certain look to maintain.
Sorry, but it's not the same - Racial discrimination will never be on the same page as life styles that are not approved up by the general public. I get it that the gay community wants to do what they want to do, but that does not mean Christians have to approve of it or support those choices. Transgender is even worse, however because it enables men to dress up as women, claiming to be something they aren't and targeting young girls in public bathrooms. If a guy wants to pretend he is a woman - I will be more than glad to leave him alone or her is she is pretending to be a man - don't ask me to say that's normal behavior.
You know I remember the Rodney King riots like it was yesterday - at the time I had just started doing audits and remember many white conservative business owners telling me that the blacks were all coming to get us. They got a bit upset when I pointed out that it was few thugs doing most of the looting and plundering and was not a full blown riot like many thought. Then a few months later I was offered an auditing position that took downtown into Los Angeles all the way south To Compton on Crenshaw business and audited businesses left and right. I remember on family asking me for a jump because their car wouldn't start and I gladly helped. Many people thought I was crazy because as a white male I was helping black people in a black neighborhood, but that is how my parents raised me and none of us were ever afraid and we had and I still have more black friends then I do white ones. I also remember the riots after Martin Luther King was murdered and we went to a church right after us, I think a few of the black people looked at my mother like she was nuts, but never said a thing. The pastor at the time was affiliated with a man named Bishop Bowden who was the most respected preacher in the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World. The man knew both of my parents because they owned a church in Compton back in the 50's - so being scared was something I never had enough common sense to do
