Discussion of religion in the context of LGBTQ+ rights is only allowed in the LGBTQ+ Rights and Religion Thread
.
Discussion of religion in any other context is off topic in all of the "LGBTQ+ rights..." threads.
Attempting to bait others into bringing up religion is also not allowed.

And did you guys read of that California lawyer that is trying to get a law passed to literally execute homosexuals?
I wonder if such a move is actually going to be worth it for his reputation.

Sorry, I didn't hear anything of that yet.

Well I do not know if any of these sources are "trustworthy" in the sense of "they are not going to go on BS" so I am going to link a few in hopes of at least one of them being trustworthy enough.
and Here
...What.

He just wants attention and remember there is no such thing as bad publicity, I guess.
I am just wondering if that is the kind of publicity that is actually going to help him.

He kind of makes God sound like a terrorist there.
I get bored of people saying "change the definition of marriage".
Every state already has its own definition of marriage and giving it to two people of the same sex won't make another one.
At times I forget what reason anyone has against same sex marriage other than "I don't like it. "
Video related.
Why shouldn't we change the definition of marriage anyway? The current one is shit.
Because traditionalists hate any sort of change.

Alabama to Federal Law and Supreme Court: Fuck you!
This is not going to end well for Alabama, they're pretty much begging for an ass-pounding.

Sweet Home, Alabama...

To elaborate a little more by the way, Alabama State Court has decided - 7-1 - to ignore the Federal ruling that marriages, same or opposite sex, are allowed in the state. They're blocking same-sex marriages by fiat, which is in against federal law and SCOTUS.
Of course it falls to that backward land of hicks to do something like this...(obviously the whole state isn't like that, but clearly large parts of the legislature are).

And they're pulling out the reproduction thing. Apparently the government sanctions marriage to encourage popping out babies. I can only assume that they're also going to order no marriage licenses for menopausal and otherwise infertile couples, because I'm sure they aren't just grasping for something that sounds better than "gay people icky."

Next up: Legislation on cooties.

For a while I had a vaguely adverse opinion to that guy in the video after seeing some of his other videos, but now he seems so much cuter. ;p
As for Alabama, I'm imagining another Union and Confederacy in this Marriage Civil War. I wonder who will be Grant and who will be Lee.
"... [T]hey're pretty much begging for an ass-pounding."
Maybe not the best expression to use here, especially given Ben Carson's comments (Dude, Not Funny!?)
But yes, it is such a stupid legal argument by the Alabama Supreme Court. There's no constitutional support for the idea that states can nullify federal laws/U.S. Supreme Court opinions. Although conservatives on the Supreme Court may agree with Alabama in terms of antipathy to same sex marriage, they are never going to support the principle of nullification.
NOT THE BEES
That sodomy law has to be satire. It would be in any state that wasn't California or Alabama. I can't think of any other places where someone can type "giver of freedom and liberty commands us to suppress" with a straight face. Also, denying employment to people he previously said should be shot, and calling the entire Supreme Court gay.

Woman who complains about transgender woman at Planet Fitness has her membership cancelled, whines about it to media. ![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
Someone call her the waaahmbulance.
Well if she was that uncomfortable about it, it may have been good that she had her membership revoked.
One person asking a company to change their policies seldom goes over well. And a third bathroom for trans people is just too much.
...you would need FOUR bathrooms for ciswomen, cismen, transwomen AND transmen.
And one for people who identify as neither.
And people who identify as both.
And people who...
So his logic is that because Prison Rape is a thing, all homosexuals are that way by choice?
