This reminds of that time a crazy ass republican told everyone the reason tornados and other scary weather happens is due to having gay friend and family. So you really gotta think for a minute, exactly how many gay people are in Georgia right now?

Anyways, I thought it was fair to bring that up because between humor and sadness being the last two emotions I got left by this point, I'd rather laugh than cry at this point

Most are just culturally Southern, being from....the South. So we know how to blend in, and just enjoy ourselves at home or in our pine forest alone.

There is plenty of butt fuckin in the South, always has been.

I remember Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell blaming 9/11 on gays and women:

> The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad.

> I really believe that the pagans, and the *abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularise America, I point the finger in their face and say, 'You helped this happen.'"

> To which Mr Robertson said: "I totally concur, and the problem is we have adopted that agenda at the highest levels of our government."

Real class act, those guys.

"My hate is God's love" is the rallying cry of religious fundamentalism in all its forms. It never makes sense and it's never okay, but I imagine it feels really good or something.

We are an anomaly in an infinite uncaring universe that can snuff us out in numerous ways and these assholes would rather us tear each other apart than to work together and help each other to preserve humanity.

It depends on how you measure it, but Atlanta isn't considered to have the most gay people. If you measure it by the percentage of the city's population, it's San Francisco at 13%. If you look at total number of gay people, NYC is the gayest with 272k LGB people.

Fair enough, I'm working off of remembering something my gay family members in ATL told me.
