I think it's sick that he, or she(can't quite see the driver) took their time and effort to make such things and put it on their vehicle. I'd be sickened if it said something else either - such as against god, Against a certain race and so on.


What if I had a strong opinion against heterosexual marriages. Would you all agree with me 'fancying' my vehicle to say ''Shame on America, No woman + man marriages.'' It'd probably make you sick. Just as this person has made me sick. Would you find it humorous and giggle. Probably not.

I don't understand what some people's issues are. :rolleyes:

I know it's hard to do, but try not to let it bother you. It is that same backward thinking that would have kept this country the same way it was at the beginning. I bet slave owners didn't want to give up their slaves and probably protested. History repeats itself and change is inevitable. So just sit back and let the idiots say whatever they want. You may not agree with what they say (and neither do I), but it is a peaceful way to say it. You and I know who will have the last laugh after all this controversy is over!

I agree, sometime it just takes time to get people to understand that change is going to happen. I am just hoping this country will progress and let people have the freedom to be with who they want to be. They just as well to, it will happen. There is always going to be ignorance in areas like this, as well as stubborness. I hate it too. So many predgudices out there, it is unreal. I hope one of these days this country will get passed these.

But I will still take the truck WITHOUT the signs, I am desparate, I need something to drive!

My brother is gay. My brother "came out" when he was 15 years old, so 13 years ago. When my dad found out his only son was gay he took it in stride. My dad is a Harley-Davidson driving, tough guy that grew up in a bad neighborhood in Chicago( to give you some background) I can't tell you how proud I am of my dad. He accepted what my brother is, and he even recognizes that it wasn't a conscious choice. My dad and brother have a great relationship, and it isn't rare for my dad to ask about my brother’s dates. Too bad more people aren't as accepting as my dad is. Do we really want someone that turns their back on family to make decisions for us!?!?

aww! that picture is upsetting! Imagine someone who has choosen to become gay, walking happily up the street and then they see that truck! Aww that would be so sad!:( I agree that everyone should be able to have their own opinion on what they want to do but they shouldent treat people horribly if they different (not in a bad way)

Heather I don't think anybody should be treated wrongly for any reason. Sometime this old world just stinks. Why do people have to do things that they know is going to hurt other people is just beyond me.

My daughter says her best friend is gay and says she just thinks he is the greatest. She always got his opinion on who she dated. Now she is engaged and Tom was the one who told her that Sam was hot, as she calls it. She says she loves going shopping with Tom, and he is just the best friend she ever had. She makes him give her advice on how to dress too. I think it is wonderful that Lindsey feels this way. I don't want my daughter to have a predjudice bone in her body for anybody.

Why should people try to impose these horrible ugly feelings to other people? That is not a nice thing to pass on to your children, friends and family. Why would you want to give somebody you love the gift of hate? Hate is such a bad feeling to carry inside of you.

I think everybody has a right to love who they want to love!

WELL SAID:D

:( :rolleyes: :mad:

I'm all for freedom of speech. I don't agree with what the driver is advertising on his truck. But, he has the right to do it as much as two men have the right to walk down the street holding hands and sharing a kiss, even though that is just as disgusting to some people as the truck signs are to me. But, it would be disrespectful for either side to voice their opinions in certain situations, such as funerals, etc. And, someone mentioned earlier about what if someone who chose to be gay saw that truck. I just had to comment, that, as far as I know, science has proven or is proving that it is not a conscience decision. And, my quote rings truest in situations like these.

Just think of the kinda person who made this...then laugh becaue they are sad sad people. Think of the time,(maybe)money,material and work put into this. Although I am all for free speech I only want free speech that actually helps progress the human race not bring it back. If I ever did see a truck/car like this I would leave a little note telling them my great views of them which wouldn't be so great. Marrige in my own view should be private,law has no place being their.

So some people oppose same-sex marriage. So are these people for sex OUTSIDE of marriage :rolleyes:

i don't quite get that:confused:

Just a feeble attempt at a joke about narrow-minded, hypocritical people....

Well, since 78% of the US population has sex before marriage I'd say there's a good chance. :)

...it would make him cry!

I agree that everyone has the right to express their opinion, but I believe that this religious bigots take it too far! I think that some of the things that they say and do should be treated as hate crimes, just as if they were targeting African Americans or other races!

I really cannot stand bigotry like this. Gay men and women are the most wonderful men and women you'd ever meet in a day's walk. How often do gay men become serial killers? Hmm? And how often do rednecks and religious nuts become serial killers? Or terrorists???!!
