Do You Relate to "Confederate Flag"?

But if you view "equality" as "punishment", then I can definitely see why you love the Rebel flag.

Really?  Then why are people of the Christian Religion being forced to make huge monetary reparations to gays, for not wanting to partake in their marriage ceremonies?  Sure sounds like punishment to me..

And furthermore, they represent a very small portion of the population, so why must the majority bend, not only to accept, but be forced to "embrace" their fringe culture?  Laws protecting them from ostracization, I can understand.  Laws that force people that don't live the same lifestyle to conform to theirs, I don't.

Since you are so learned in the ways of the law, won't you explain it to me?  (and please don't just do that little bit where you pick one little phrase and argue it, look at the post as an entity, for a change )
