    Oh i am tearing the fabric of society apart and breaking family unit's apart?, that's me convinced. Where do i sign up to be straight again? Idiots!

    Yeah lets indoctrinate children into hating those that are different, way to go land of the free!

    But family should be allowed to include a loveless marriage between a man and a woman maybe even in some case's where domestic violence is common place? But god help us all if it includes two men or two women who love each other.

    Sometimes the ridiculousness of it all relay makes you mad:tantrum:

    The real question is:

    Do they have a chance of approving any of those measures?

    No, the Supreme Court already ruled that criminalizing sodomy is unconstitutional, so they can't do it. Unless they secede or something, knowing the morons that run us...

    The chance of any of that legislation passing is slim to none.

    Also with democratic/liberal blocking of passing this, it is still very, very slim it would pass.

    I wonder how would they enforce such things as banning sexual acts.

    Would they elect a Peeping Tom in every neighborhood to make sure those two hip-swishing, fashion-savvy nancyboys across the street aren't having any play-play?

    there are extremist idiots everywhere, even in Texas I'm sure people like that are the vast minority, they just shout loud, and the media happily laps it all up.

    Isn't Texas the state that made thousands of heterosexual marriages void like a year ago by passing a law with bad wording?

    They'll probably end up banning Oral Reports at that rate.

    The sad part about this is I'm not surprised at all. :\ Just the kind of legislation I'd expect from those nutjobs.

    Banning strip clubs, pornography, and oral/anal sex. Cause y'know, that's sure going to show us homosexuals. It's not like the vast majority of straight people also enjoy strip clubs, pornography, and oral/anal sex. Noo..

    I know people on here have said that it won't happen, but how can that lot be so stupid to hold such views. I just can't comprehend such idiots, it does not make sense.

    What a mad world we live in:bang:

    Actually, Virginia and Florida DO have laws saying only the missionary position is allowed :grin: Nobody enforces it though, as you have guessed.

    Being gay was illegal in Texas until 2003?

    In around 23 other states as well, until the Supreme Court ruled in unconstitutional. It was the case Lawrence vs. Texas.
