Everytime a minority group wants to end unjust discrimination it has to convince society at large that such and such discrimination is unjust.
I agree and I'm not convinced that gays are being unjustly discriminated against.
For years now, I've been debating and trying to convince people that having a "right" means much more than being protected under the law.
Sure, but what we can see from the
Japanese American internment is that you really don't have any rights that the government doesn't allow you to have.
Society at large still doesn't think demonizing gay people is unjust discrimination.
I find it to be an
invented discrimination that has nothing to do with demonization.
Would society have allowed the decision to be made without a public outcry if the decision was about private school expelling students based on their religion or skin color?
Your private school example is really poor. I went to private schools and they can pretty much get rid of you for any reason they want without public outcry.
Of course you would play dumb and refuse to see the parallel, just like the people who refused to see a parallel between segregation and slavery.
Can you not see that it is not people playing dumb and refusing to see the parallel but people who realize that its not parallel in the first place?
