Pat Boone, one of the most successful American singers in the 1950’s and 60’s and claims to be a direct descendant of pioneer Daniel Boone, compares the Prop 8 Protests to the terrorists in Mumbai over at the WorldNetDaily.
What troubles me so deeply, and should trouble all thinking Americans, is that there is a real, unbroken line between the jihadist savagery in Mumbai and the hedonistic, irresponsible, blindly selfish goals and tactics of our homegrown sexual jihadists. Hate is hate, no matter where it erupts. And by its very nature, if it’s not held in check, it will escalate into acts vile, violent and destructive.
So, having blindly selfish goals of marriage equality will escalate into violence if it’s not held in check.
And nothing ever gets done when you disagree with the majority.
There never were any “rights” granted or designated to those who dissented with the will of the majority
At least he does not claim that equal marriage is not a “true right.”
Slavery was abolished, blacks and women obtained the rights to vote, and these true rights were not obtained by threats and violent demonstrations and civil disruption (though these things did occur, of course), but by due process, congressional deliberations and appropriate ratification.
