Actually you know statistically that nuking every homosexual on the planet would not solve the problem, nor would rounding them up on an island. We know that homosexuality is not a hereditary condition as homosexuals do not reproduce, yet represent approximately 10 percent of the population. So nuking them all only delays your problem by a generation--and dumping the problem on our kids is not a valid solution. But your hatred and hyperbole are duly noted. As to the other part, I believe the phrase you're looking for is "hate the sin, not the sinner." The fact is that gays do not have equal standing in this country. DOMA was deemed unconstitutional as was don't ask don't tell because they infringed on people's rights. If the NFL were populated only by players from states in the northeast corner of the country, issues of coming out wouldn't be an issue, but that is not the case and players cannot be who they are. This is why gay marriage most certainly has a bearing on players coming out. You said that it's legal in 18 states, and, as I said, if the NFL were limited to those 18 states, it wouldn't be much of an issue because most straight people in those states understand that it has no impact on them in the least.
Actually, I think the only ones that they are trying to make into pariahs are those who exude hatred. You can think what you want without repercussion. Law can force people to allow gay marriage. And what they learn once it's legal, that it's not about them. In those states where it has been legal for years, you just don't hear the opposition, because those people opposed realize that all those things they feared just don't happen.
Perhaps I used the wrong word in "credible." I assumed nothing, or I wouldn't have agreed that their is not corroboration ("admit is an interesting choice of words--I'm not fighting here, but expressing my views as are you) Let's go for believable. It most certainly could easily be as he outlined. I don't think we, without having been there or hearing 20 people with a lot to lose corroborate his accounting, we will never know the truth.
It will be increasingly uncool for people to hold-on to bigoted views towards gays. Them's the breaks, nothing you can do about it. Sure, it is still legal to talk about interracial couples in disparaging ways, but the culture now rejects this position. Gay acceptance is approaching that level. You and Duck Man have lost the battle, even if reactionary sentiment will drag on for a decade or so, especially in the South. The under-40 crowd broadly, solidly accepts gays, finds older people odd on this issue.
I'm disturbed by the gossip about Josh Sitton being gay. I accept that he just likes to take a wide stance.

Ohh my goodness Josh Sitton.

Is there any foundation for those that hate also being selfish?
Do the selfish often act thinking about the best interests of their children?
Is the debate about:

HANDS OFF !!
or BOTH?
i think its all about the fear that some people have that a group of gays are gonna someday bust through their front door and all start butt fucking each other in the middle of the family room while their family is trying to have their nightly bible study
Yes. We must all learn to embrace the gay lifestyle in all it's entirety. Tolerance isn't enough. If you don't wholly accept it, you must be banished.
All of society should realize that a very small percentage of our population should define the norms accepted by all (according to the Hollywood left and the press). Forget the other 95+ %.
By the way, Kluwe should not only have been kept on the roster, but his salary doubled for speaking out politically on the issues. Any employee of a company should be able to speak out regardless of the content of the speech (not!).
