Your persistent misrepresentation of those that disagree with you as being complicit in violence.
That's not oppression. Prejudice, yes.
Well, from where I'm standing it looks exactly the same way, but reversed. The Gay lobby are everywhere, making a noise about everything.
Ah. I can understand the impression you have then.
It bears pointing out that while the gay lobby may be vocal and may be having an effect on law and public opinion, we are still vastly outnumbered in the population, still disadvantaged in employment and housing, still much more likely to suffer random acts of hate-inspired violence, and we still live in a society where the majority of public officials, business leaders, and religious leaders are vitriolic in their hatred for us.
There are those with influence who want Christians to think you are being set upon by rampaging queers because they make lots of money from that perception. Suddenly, now, we're "everywhere" -- like something out of Stalin's handbook, we're accused in the media of doing what is being done to us.
