Re: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.O._Green_School_shooting
I think it is only fair to say that it falls into the same category as an old women holding a cross at a gay rally. Not that he deserved to be shot at all, but if you are going to excuse violent behavior by homosexuals because someone expressed their opinion to them, then you have to excuse this guy for reacting violently to a homosexual doing the same thing. (obviously in this case the violent reaction was much, much more serious, and just to be clear, I don't think anyone is excused for their actions in either of those situations).

It's becoming clearer and clearer that if we expect to ever be treated with full and total equality in this country, we're going to have to pry it from the christian majority's hands. And if those hands have to be sliced off to loosen the grip, so be it. Go ahead then. All you are going to do is create more enemies and a stronger opposition. The reason the gay rights movement has been working is that until recently, it has been a peaceful movement, which gains tremendous sympathy in the public eye, but if the recent trend of in-your-face, violent behavior continues, you will lose most of the support you have gained over the last couple of decades. People don't like violent assholes, no matter what their cause, people like other people who look like victims, and aren't lashing out because of it. But if you think you can "pry it from the christian majority's hands", lol, then go ahead and try. In case you didn't notice, you said "CHRISTIAN MAJORITY", which means you won't win a battle of strength. Violence? Tell that to Matthew Shepard, or Lawrence King, or Moses Cannon(Latiesha Green) THAT is violence. And guess who's side those events helped? Was it the people who acted violent or the victims? That just proves my point. So violence is a good thing? WOAH, screwy priorities there, buddy. Ok let me explain this in as plain of English as I am capable, and hopefully you will figure out what I am saying: When ANY group, for ANY reason, lashes out in a violent manner at ANY other group, public opinion is tilted TOWARD the group who was the VICTIM of the violent behavior. Therefore, behaving in a violent manner is BAD, as in not GOOD, and will not help your cause in any way, unless you are capable of literally wiping out the opposition and forcing them to bend to your will. In THIS specific example, we are talking about HOMOSEXUALS trying to force CHRISTIANS to accept them by using violent, intimidating behavior. My point is that HOMOSEXUALS, being a minority, cannot succeed in a battle of wills with the CHRISTIAN majority, so their only hope of victory is to sway enough CHRISTIANS over to their side to make their side the majority. Violence/Intimidation WILL NOT HELP that cause. Key words in CAPS. Hopefully that was more clear, but just to be sure: VIOLENCE IS BAD. Patronization is completely annoying, especially coming from younger members. I understood perfectly what you were insinuating, but don't you think that a lack of violence is preferrable, even if there were a few 'blessing in disguise' perks? It just pisses me off when people say "Oh quit complaining, you guys are getting media attention". Like that justifies the murders. You're a hypocrite. Acting like you know how old I am is patronizing too. I get what you are saying, but I think you don't understand the context in which I am saying what I am saying. I was never talking about the violence committed against homosexuals, until you brought it up. My original comment was saying the violence never helps the person committing it, so homosexuals are not helping themselves by lashing out at the Christian right. Then you came along and started talking about violence that was committed against homosexuals, so my reply was just that if you look at even that violence, it further supports my original point that violence is never the solution, and never helps your cause. Do we agree? Of course it isn't helping anyone to lash out, I never said it was. But honestly, can you blame them? It just gets so old...so frustrating. I'm not saying it's right, but I completely understand when someone snaps and says or does something ill-advised. What you were saying just sounded a little cold, that's all I meant.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it sounds like you are suggesting that gays can and will force Christians to accept them by using intimidation and violence. If that is what you are saying, you are insane.
