I've seen the LGBT community go ragingly hateful and (mostly restrained) violent against Posie Parker. All humans, when they have strong beliefs, and when they are crowds, can become violent. I don't think history from before I was born is terribly relevant to the odds that some subgroup of society today becomes so hateful as to become violent against another subgroup of society. And for the sake of civility we should avoid inflaming tensions, especially with my tax dollars.

Christians don't believe LGBT people are anything other than sinners choosing sin, and that belief (which I disagree with) is not going to change in the minds of Christians. They lost the gay marraige legal battle. They've consistently lost when laws are concerned. LGBT people are getting everything they asked for. Why can't they just stop trying to aggrevate Christians? If someone wants to shove something down someone else's throat, they need to get permission.
