It is impossible to define fairness or compassion without referring to some moral code or ethical standard. And by what code or standard do gays imagine it would be fair or compassionate for America to give legal or protected class status to a special interest, created by gay militants solely to benefit themselves, whose aggressive political agenda (1) threatens the civil rights of thousands of people impacted by it; (2) would forcibly redistribute benefits from the truly needy to the already well-advantaged; and (3) demands recognition as a suspect class on no more substantive basis than allegations about how its members want to engage in sex?
