30. Is there a difference when it comes down to it
Between, "no gays" and "no people who act gay"? I seem to think that they are quite similar. One says that we can't accept any of you people. The other says that we'll accept you people, but only if you act like us people. To me that's close enough to the same thing to thoroughly disabuse me of any allegiance to said groups.
