Sometimes, amazingly, people really are just that wrong.

For example: anyone against vaccinations.


Suppose someone's anti-vaccination for themselves because of medical reasons (as in, "I'll die if I take this shot"). Would that make them wrong?

They're not against vaccinations. They're all for them, they just literally can't have them.

There's a massive difference.

Just saying, most (if not all) places that require vaccinations do have "medical exemptions" clauses. Those are not the issue. The issue are the "contentious objections" clauses that allow people to value disproven junk science and Jenny McCarthy above the lives of those around them.

At this point, opposing gay marriage is just bigotry and backwards if you ask me.

Nice try, but not quite. Wanting to be able to do something that affects only you and others who choose to be involved is not equivalent to wanting to prevent other people from doing things they want to do which have no direct affect on you at all.

Additionally, I always find the "gays can't raise a family" argument hilarious, because not only is it spurious bollocks(adoption, IVF with a surrogate), but the people who use it never seem to argue that straight couples should be prevented from getting marries if they don't want to have children or are sterile and can't have children.

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal

I could care less, what people do in their home or in relationships is none of my damned buisness. With that being said I'm not a huge fan of ANY PDA hetero or homo. Do what you wanna do, but please keep it in the bedroom.

Why would I want to impinge on the liberty to happily wed of other people? Why would I want to prevent my aunt and cousin from having a happy life? Plus what goes on in the bedroom of somebody else's bedroom is none of your damn business unless it's not consensual.
