Homosexual/Lesbians Demand Special Rights

Taking Back the Rainbow

The Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch regularly asks its online readers questions. Mostly the questions are parochial or arcane in nature. Today they had a serious and very poignant and critical question. Here is their question and my reply.

The Hot Issue: Should Ohio have a law giving equal rights to (homosexual/lesbian) people in employment and housing?

gregjaye: Absolutely NOT

A better way to phrase the question would be, “Should Ohio grant special rights and privileges to homosexuals, lesbians and ‘transgendered’ individuals in employment and housing?” Or, “Should Ohio create a new classification of discrimination based primarily on the preferred sexual behavior of a minority, who choose what is considered by many as abnormal, immoral, unnatural and unhealthy behavior?” Or, “Should Ohio have a law granting SPECIAL rights to homosexuals, lesbians, transgendered individuals in matters of employment and housing?”
