Bermuda: Gay Cruises OK, Marriage Not So Much

Tuneup1, maybe you misread me. Yep, tag me gay. What am I looking for? Nothing. I'm atheist. Don't need to belong to or be accepted by anyone or anything. Tolerated? Sure. Equal rights? Absolutely. Like the Moronic Mormon Church (or any church for that matter)? Nope, they're all cults - but that's not the point. Does communicating with ANY of the congregation EVER have any effect? Only an idiot would think it never does. Do I spend much effort trying? Nope, pretty much only when they (Mormons/7th Day Adventists) come to my door. I no longer answer the door only wearing pumps and a jack strap when I answer, but actually explain how mean their religions treat me and my bi-national husband, and how can they believe that's fair or good? I like to think they leave thinking something like, 'wow, we've never had that conversation before! he had some points!' But that's just me. I Hate the Mormon church, the Pope, a lot of things - and still I talk to em.

I agree we should boycott, but let's remember if the rest of the world follows suit gay people won't be coming here. As a person who lives in a state that greatly benefits from gay dollars it would be scary if that money left our state, progressive though it is.

I agree that the sick person mentioned is a homophobic internet troll (the so called "d") and I have been the victim of this person's abuse and hatred, too. I know it is a hallmark of a very low down person to call other people names but this party goes beyond anger management issues. Even using anti-gay hate words. I think the best thing to do would be not to engage this sewer person. Nobody cares about him or her in real life and this person has been a failure on the net, too. And to judge from many of its opinions, the mind is infantile. Most pathetic are the lectures from someone who wouldn't know gay liberation if (s)he fell over it. I'm willing to bet s(he has a long police record for domestic violence.

Fran I like you. I have gone back in the archives and have see what you said about "d" is historically true. You do have a way of expressing yourself. Good work.

to d as in demented. Please 1) come out of the closet. the moniker "d' is stale 2) get a life 3) stop abusing people here in your alcoholic bitterness. No one cares about you and your preachments and fake bio in trailer trash land. If you left the world, not one person would cry. You are a homophobic internet troll. Always calling people names but the joke is on you. Get over your gay self hatred. I know it is hard when you are on welfare after being fired for being a drunkard at bartending

Kev: To me that doesn't make any sense. California gays supported you at your state of Boston's time of need. Yes boycott spending in the fascist influenced governments in each state like Utah, Arizona, Hawaii and yes California, etc by removing their control and not against the meaning of gay rights but in the name of gay rights. Hawaiians who live there in support of sovereignty are calling for this boycott because its obvious how corrupt their government has become and Californian gays are attuned to the businesses who gave big money to pass Prop. H8 and no longer patronize them. We know about Arizona and Utah unfortunately two states I used to frequent because of its natural beauty that I spent many times hiking in as well as Alaska and Hawaii which now I must avoid. Please understand the differences.

If marriage equality is now THE criterion for gay-friendliness in tourism, we should all avoid California too!

Let's hope it is the campaign that gays and lesbians need to be protected as a group under the Human Rights Act that's helping. Usually something not so good has to happen for change to take place and maybe this was it. We know it won't happen over night, so baby-steps and praise the good things.

d for dahhh: Judging from my response to your previous post and if what you're saying is true than you agree with me. The first part was dedicated to you that we agree on however the second part was addressed to "People". Don't get your Bermuda shorts tide up in your crack.

tuneup...I think tuneout would have been better. My post responded to an earlier post. You've given new meaning to Biggest Idiot posting on here. You can pick up your tiara on your way out.
