i wasn't planning on posting in this thread but...

i don't agree with what Mr Cathy believes but he has the right to his beliefs just like we do. The First Amendment allows freedom of speech and religion to everyone in this country not just those who say what i agree with or want to hear...

i used to be very active in the fight for our rights but grew tired of the lack of support within our own community...if we would take all of this energy and opposition and actually put it to work perhaps we will make some progress...nothing happens overnight or by magic...it takes time, a lot of hard work, patience and perserverance...but we CAN do it!

BTW - i noticed the map above shows that gay employees can be legally fired in NC...true there is no protection but this is an employment at will state with few protections beyond the standards of age, race, religion, disability, etc.
