They willingly and gladly post and read stuff from the "dumbest guy on the Internet," Jim Hoft who runs "Gateway Pundit."
Has anyone heard anything about "gay reparations?"
I sure haven't.

Wow. That was the reaction of Rick Wilson, national Republican message and media strategist, to a reporter telling him Republican presidential candidates will be made to answer on whether or not they support gay reparations. Wilson posted on Twitter Monday afternoon about an interview he had with someone he would only describe as a national reporter who shocked Wilson by bringing up the subject of gay reparations as an issue GOP presidential candidates will pressed on by reporters.

I know you didn't mean it that way but whose money are you going to pay them with?

(14,177 posts)Not a bad idea actually. Unlike a lot of people who have been oppressed we might be able to quantify some of the ways gay people have lost money and have been injured.
1. Not being able to be on their partners insurance policy.
2. Not being able to visit a sick partner in the hospital.
3. Having lower paying jobs, gay couples despite the media portrayal as usually being upper middle class to rich are actually living in poverty much more frequently than straight couples, it would be good to find out why and fix that if possible.
that is all for now, this isn't an area where I have had a lot of study, but I am sure there are at least a dozen other ways gay people have been hurt and a lot of them have had a negative economic impact.
