Gay Pride parade setting back Gay Rights movement by 50 years

As someone who supports Gay Rights and believes that Gay marriage is a good thing, I'd say this item from the satirical The Onion, though meant as a spoof, makes some very valid points. The same stuff was going on at Toronto`s Pride parade:
"I'd always thought gays were regular people, just like you and me, and that the stereotype of homosexuals as hedonistic, sex-crazed deviants was just a destructive myth," said mother of four Hannah Jarrett, 41, mortified at the sight of 17 tanned and oiled boys cavorting in jock straps to a throbbing techno beat on a float shaped like an enormous phallus. "Boy, oh, boy, was I wrong."

The parade, organized by the Los Angeles Gay And Lesbian And Bisexual And Transvestite And Transgender Alliance (LAGALABATATA), was intended to "promote acceptance, tolerance, and equality for the city's gay community." Just the opposite, however, was accomplished, as the event confirmed the worst fears of thousands of non-gay spectators, cementing in their minds a debauched and distorted image of gay life straight out of the most virulent right-wing hate literature.

Is rabble.ca implying that Jack Layton was a closeted homosexual?

The great playwright of the English Renaissance Christopher Marlowe wrote Edward II about the Gay son of the monarch Edward Longshanks (modern audiences might know the first Edward best as the villain  of Mel Gibson's Braveheart).

Setting the tone, the play opens with Edward II's special friend Gaveston reading a letter from the new monarch which includes the lines:

My men, like satyrs grazing on the lawns,
Shall with their goat-feet dance an antic hay.
Sometime a lovely boy in Dian's shape,
With hair that gilds the water as it glides,
Crownets of pearl about his naked arms,
And in his sportful hands an olive tree
To hide those parts which men delight to see

The far-left website rabble.ca, published by the same-sex spouse of NDP Deputy Leader Libby Davies, is promoting an event called:

Pride, Prejudice and Politics: Jack Layton and the lessons of Christopher Marlowe’s Edward II  


In its description, they note:  As an undergraduate student at McGill, Jack Layton read and copiously annotated his copy of Marlowe's play. Join us as Dr. Jason Boyd connects the dots between Jack Layton and this classic 16th Century play.

It should be interesting which "dots" they connect between the former NDP leader about whom there was much speculation, and the tragic Edward II who also met an untimely end.

Uganda pushing for Anti-Homosexuality Bill after confrontation with Canada's Foreign Minister Baird


BY NATASHA BARSOTTI  The speaker of Uganda's parliament has called for a vote on MP David Bahati's "anti-homosexuality" bill, which she supports, upon returning to Uganda after a heated exchange with John Baird, Canada's foreign affairs minister. Baird criticized the legislation at the Inter-Parliamentary Union conference held in Quebec City.    
According to a report in The Advocate, Rebecca Kadaga told a crowd gathered at Entebbe airport that she "will not accept to be intimidated or to be directed by any government in the world because we are independent. I will now instruct the chair of the Committee of Legal and Parliamentary Affairs to quickly bring the report of the anti-homosexuality bill so that we can discuss it and so that Uganda can take a position."

Politically correct sociologists outraged at study of Gay parents

Homosexuality is a natural facet of animal behavior in some circumstances, and the obvious reason that it occurs in nature is for population reduction.

I support Gay marriage, but it really is no shock that children have worse outcomes being raised by same-sex partners than by two biological parents.

But don't ever dare say that in public, or a storm of outraged, politically-correct, substandard academics will bay like wolves.

Apparently the death penalty for homosexuality in the United Arab Emirates only applies if both parties consent

On the books, the penalty for homosexuality in the United Arab Emirates is death.

But after an Asian man was kidnapped and raped by 13 relatives of a woman he had a relationship with, the penalties only ranged from 1 to 2 years.
