(4,359 posts)12. Well, I don't think it will ever go away. Right Wing religious types need their enemy
It seems they can't fill up their pews unless they have an enemy. Sometimes it is gays, sometimes it is foreigners, sometimes it is other religions, sometimes its witches... But the percentages will shift... 50% 40% 30%... someday only 5% will hate gays. That, sadly, is the truth BUT, things like this allow us to see who our friends are. Lets young people see that gay people have friends and support.
This video is all good. Just a world of good for everyone to see. That doesn't happen all that often.
