Catholic spokesman slanders San Francisco Board of Supervisors as Nazis over GLBT adoptions
http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/?p=30774

Lawyers for a Catholic advocacy group that sued San Francisco for condemning the Vatican’s policy on same-sex adoptions are comparing the city’s supervisors to Nazis laying the groundwork for the slaughter of Jews.

In a statement responding to last week’s ruling by a federal appeals court in the city’s favor, Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center, used a German term for the Nazi policy of forced conformity to party doctrine and the elimination of opposition groups in the 1930s:

“It is not a stretch to compare the San Francisco board’s actions to that of the Nazi Germany policy of Gleichschaltung, vilifying Jews as an auxiliary to and laying the groundwork for more repressive policies, including the final solution of extermination.”

2. So they think gays are preparing to kill Catholics?
Don't they know we just don't really give a shit about Catholics?

4. Oh yeah. Just had the "separate bathrooms" argument yesterday.
Gays can't have the same bathrooms as straights because they'll look at everyone's pee-pee!

7. I can honestly say I have only caught one person looking at my privates in the bathroom and he was
straight. Seriously.

The stupid hurts just as much as the homophobia.... or are they one and the same?
