I'd say the comparable equivelent is a billboard saying "Are you white and don't want to be?" sponsored by the NAACP.

But that opens up another can of worms, where people make unfounded arguments about how race can't be chosen, but orientation can.

Yeah, I get that, and the intention is comendable. But is it really something you can change?


I'm going to take cover now because I feel this might turn into a is it genetic or learned behavior debate.....

I'd say it is more like a lot of billboards about pregnancy, etc. "pregnant and need help?" and what not.

Do you honestly think anybody would want to be gay in SC?

No, I don't. I don't understand why anyone choose to be gay under any circumstances, which is why I don't believe it's a concious choice.

In the city I live in there is no hostility towards gay people, at least not on an open public level. There appears to be a large gay community in this area.

Why do you ASSUME because it's in the south, that hatred towards homosexuals will automatically be the case?

Seeing as there are gay people in SC, I would say yes.

He's ASSUMING that we drag gay guys out into the streets and beat them and tell them to go back where they came from. And they're wrong. We only do that to black people.

Because this is the same state that flies a symbol of racism (or as I like to call it their 2nd place trophy) on the state house grounds?
