4. Civil rights is not about
who suffered more. Civil rights is about the fight for equality for all citizens.

Hmm Lets go back 50 or so years.. It is not natural for a white man to marry an african american.. it goes against God's law.

The plain fact is that I could very easily go out tonight with my BF and if i don't watch my back I could be beaten or even killed. I could be fired from my job for who I am.

The struggle is always the same... the arguments the conservative use are always the same.. that is where the simularities lie.
