California ballot proposal filed “Sodomite Suppression Act”

The Sodomite Suppression Act has also now drawn a response from activist Charlotte Laws, who planned to file her own ballot initiative Monday called "The Intolerant Jackass Act," according to Slate. The Intolerant Jackass Act would require anyone who proposes a ballot initiative calling for gay people to be killed to attend one year of sensitivity training and donate $5,000 to a pro-LGBT group. From Slate:

Maybe the best response would be to ignore him?

If it was satire, why pitch what sounds like an on the spot execution?

The Bible Belt gets the worst report card in the nation

The 'this isn't Nigeria' comments are illustrative of the attitude that is part of the problem - that is really is no problem.

If we're to believe the statistics, a percentage - higher than you might think - of straight doods favor the girl's arse over the Sanctioned Port of Call. What are we to do with those sodomites? Or is a female fair game for any kind of fiddling, while the man-ass is a regular killing field, according to this proposed "legislation."

I have never made even the slightest effort to further gay rights, which is my fault, but I've followed the rhubarb in a casual way and have noticed some interesting and patiently silly myths and psychological games that keep masquerading as truth, even now.

First, normally intelligent people, who in all other things defer to the experts and to those who work in a given field to draw their conclusions - all this goes out the door with the anti-sodomite crew. The only authority is centuries-old religious texts, and all other evidence is dismissed as stuff simply made up by man. When pressed about a gay person, notice how you will NEVER find a gay basher who will admit that homosexuality simply, normally and naturally occurs in the modern world. Sure, there are people practicing homosexuality, but these people are sinners who are deluded about their true nature. True nature is straight - meaning there is no such thing as a natural born, "God-created" gay. No such animal actually exists. Just us straight folk who have been hoodwinked by screwy impulses, weed, gay porn, negro music and lack of discipline. In this way the anti-sodomites dodge any meaningful discussion about the topic by insisting that in reality, there are no legitimate gay folk to begin with. That's called denial.

The second angle is one we see trotted out by anti-free soloing groups and individuals, who tell us they cannot sanction any no-rope work lest they give the wrong impression and might, quite by accident, encourage behavior that can potentially kill an unwitting climber. Of course there is absolutely no evidence for this deadly-influence model being anything but a concept. Free-soloing is self-policing by virtue of the sh#t-producing terror of getting off the deck on hard ground.

Likewise, the notion that people straddling the fence per their sexuality are "encouraged" to get after that bung hole by dint of gay marriage and so on - well this is nothing more than scare tactics. All anti-sodomite sentiments do is keep people closeted. They don't have the power to change or otherwise "corrupt" a person's natural-born tendencies.

Lastly what makes any of it my bid-ness? Or yours? Lest you are furthering freedom and diminishing shame, you're not doing humanity proud, in my opinion.
