Two Gay Men Arrested In Italy For KISSING!!

There's absolutely no discrimination against gay people. There's absolutely no hatred of gay people. Gay people are treated equally. Yeah, and I'll sell you the Colosseum!!

Gay men arrested for 'kissing' outside Colosseum

Italy's gay activists said yesterday they would organise a sit-in "with collective kissing" at the Colosseum to protest against the arrest of two men, for what police described as an "oral relationship". They risk being tried for public indecency, punishable by up to two years in jail.

Government politicians deplored the arrests as exemplifying a rising tide of harassment of gay people in Italy. But a carabinieri spokesman insisted the officers had merely applied the law.

The equal opportunities minister in Romano Prodi's centre-left government warned of a growing number of "homophobic acts of violence, vandalism and discrimination", some organised by the far-right. Health minister Livia Turco called the Rome arrests "excessive" and she hoped the two men would get an apology.

But a representative of the conservative Christian Democrats said the government was seeking to promote "the exclusion from the law of the gay caste". The chairman of the party, Rocco Buttiglione, whose views on gays cost him a seat on the European commission, said it wanted "to overturn at all costs the fundamental values of the nation".

A carabinieri spokesman insisted the "true discrimination would have been not to arrest [the two men]". An extract from the official report to prosecutors, published by the daily Corriere della Sera, said they "had their trousers and underpants down". But Fabrizio Marrazzo of the Gay Helpline said: "The Carabinieri can say what they like. Roberto and Michele insist it was just a kiss."

Okay, let's break this down for a second. The carabinieri spokesman says that the "true discrimination would have been not to arrest the two men". Let me ask this question. If they were simply applying the law as the carabinieri spokesman insists, how many HETEROSEXUAL couples have been arrested for kissing in front of the Colosseum or anywhere in public for that matter? I would truly love to hear the answer. But I can pretty much guess what that answer would be. Hmm...could it be...ZERO? Nah, it couldn't be!!

Oh, and don't you know that gay people just can't keep their damn pants on? I mean, according to the report, they "had their trousers and underpants down". Of course they did because all gay people think about 24/7 is having sex. They aren't capable of holding another thought!! Again, if you believe that I'll sell you the Colosseum.

Remember boys and girls, gay people AREN'T discriminated against on a daily basis throughout the world. They're not harassed. They're not tortured. They're not killed. They're equals, and are treated with respect. Yeah, on what planet do the jackasses who believe that live on? Clearly, it's not this one!!

Tommy Thompson's Gay Remark "Explained"

GOP Presidential hopeful Tommy Thompson "explained" why he said that employers should be allowed to fire gay people. You see, he really, really, really, really, really had to use the bathroom. He also had the flu and bronchitis. And, his hearing aid died. Nice one Tommy!! Too bad nobody believes him except for those delusional followers of his that think he actually has a chance in hell of being the next President.

LAKE GENEVA, Wis. — Expanding on his reason for saying at a debate that an employer should be allowed to fire someone for being gay, Tommy Thompson on Saturday blamed a dead hearing aid and his need to use the bathroom.

Thompson, speaking to reporters after giving an address at the state GOP convention, also said he was suffering from the flu and bronchitis and had been admitted to a hospital emergency room three days prior to the May 3 debate.

"Nobody knows that," Thompson said. "I've been very sick. ... I was very sick the day of the debate. I had all of the problems with the flu and bronchitis that you have, including running to the bathroom. I was just hanging on. I could not wait until the debate got off so I could go to the bathroom."

Thompson said he thought he was being asked if there were enough laws already to address discrimination in the workplace. The question at the debate was, "If a private employer finds homosexuality immoral, should he be allowed to fire a gay worker?"

Thompson replied: "I think that is left up to the individual business. I really sincerely believe that that is an issue that business people have got to make their own determination as to whether or not they should be."

Hey Tommy Boy, own up to what you said and stop making excuses. I don't care if your hearing aid died or not. You still have one good ear. You knew exactly what the question was. I've been seriously ill at times, and I'm still coherent!! What's your excuse? Oh that's right, you had to use the potty!! What a shame!! Tommy Boy revealed his true colors for all the world to see. And for the record, if he was that sick he could have simply pulled out of the debate.

Polish PM Says No More Gays

The Polish Prime Minister said that "it was not in the interest of society to have more gay people."

Hmm, I wonder who it was that said something similar before. Oh that's right!! HITLER!! The only difference is that Hitler was talking mainly about Jewish people.

Don't misunderstand me here. I'm in absolutely no way disrespecting the people of Poland. I'm in absolutely no way disrespecting the victims of the Holocaust, or the survivors of this horrible atrocity. What I am saying is that comments such as those that the Polish Prime Minister made are disgusting. Comments such as his add fuel to the fire. All it would take is for one person to take his words about gay people literally, and it could lead to more atrocities.

Perhaps he should visit Auschwitz or some other former concentration camps that still exist, and reflect upon what happened there. I wonder how many of those people who were murdered there were GAY. I certainly wouldn't like to see another Holocaust. I'm not saying that he does either. But his words certainly don't help. If anything, they're only going to make things worse for gay people.
