RE: Non-Non-Discrimination Laws, What!?!?! Yep, you heard that right.

in #lgbt8 years ago

when will people understand that equal right isn't an attack or taking anything away from them it's so stupid.
It's like an old guy who has been using the community swimming pool alone everyday for 10 years screaming what about my right to swim alone, when someone new turns up wanting to swim.

Ha! That's a great analogy, just perfect!

I've not been able to find them again, but last year while they were campaigning and eventually repealing the LGBT protections in my city, someone posted scanned in transcripts from the late 1950's that showed process to African-American rights being investigated and then passed. The arguments made against passing civil rights for African-Americans were near identical to what were being used to repeal LGBT civil rights. The guy in the video makes the case beautifully. Please watch a while, cause there's a twist.

that's just brilliant it's such a shame it even needed to be said though.

ps. could you tell me how to do the greyed out quotes please.

Very true

And to do quotes...just highlight copy what you want to quote, then just put a > at the start of the line and paste it. If you want, you can put a >- on the following line to show who said it. Make sure to have an extra return afterwards though, to get it back to regular/non-quote text.

Example:
