Grrrr. Don't keep telling me what to do!

We would like to know who really believes in gay rights on livejournal. There is no bribe of a miracle or anything like that. If you truly believe in gay rights, then repost this and title the post as "Gay Rights". If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this. Thanks.

Firstly - I'd like to know who "We" are.

Are We Livejournal itself? And if so why?

Are We The Anti-Sodomitic Tribe of Zambezi with Uber Hacking Powers? George Dubya? The Make Me Gay Brigade?

And WTF with the moral blackmail "If you don't believe in gay rights then just ignore this."???

If you don't believe that kittens should be well cared for, ignore this. OK?

I don't like to be told what to do, and I object very strongly the implication that I'm anti-something just because I don't turn into a fucking sheep. I'm lucky, I know, that I come from a country where I can stand in the street (or even go on television) and take the piss out of the Queen, or Tony Blair and no men in uniforms will come round my house in the middle of the night. (Sadly) I have the right to dress as a chicken and call myself Mr McCluck. I have the right to be gay. Or not. I have to right to approve of gays. Or not. I have the right to consider myself black, even if I'm not. I have the right to vote. But then I have the right to scoff chocolate and get pissed instead of voting, and care not a whit that generations of women were run over by racehorses for my rights.

So don't go and tell me that if I'm not part of the solution, I'm part of the problem. If I want to be part of either, I'll make my own mind up. And I'll only tell you if I feel like it. Whoever you are.

Thanks.

:) They did come once. My kitchen was on fire and I was dead drunk in bed.

Oh and what a missed op that was. Damn.

Rather bemused viewing havoc. The discussions thus far have been far better then the stupid gacked meme that's going around. I should not, btw, be allowed on livejournal when I'm slightly plowed. Although if it could bring big men in black suits to my door (in big stompy boots)...
