Of course. We humor those for whom the Freedom of others is too hard to digest.

<quoted text>Some people have an absolute disregard for others in the way they abuse freedoms. I have the right to do many things that might offend others, but out of common courtesy, I will opt to be a good neighbor over claiming my selfish rights. I have seen a few gay posts where one resented being lumped together with the shameless exhibitionists. John Adams warned of the dangers of our freedoms being abused to the detriment of others and the country as a whole. Enjoy your freedoms, but please do it responsibly.

Freedom cannot be "abused". It is absolute.
You are confusing Freedom with Liberty, which is just part of social negotiation between Free and sovereign individuals.
Just for the sake of discussion, apart from courteous humoring, why should I not dance just because some Southern Baptist (or even a whole lot of em) thinks it's wrong and want to teach their kids toxic shame?
A very old joke:
"Why won't Southern Baptists have sex standing up?"
"It's too like dancing."
Let's get some perspective:

i'm sorry to report this kind of behavior is what spoils peoples opinions of gay folks. there's no reason, other than wanting to rile people up, for SOME gays to try to be so "in your face". look at newsclips about gay pride parades, all they show is the flamboyant "flamers", not normal looking, normal acting gays. most staight people don't try to flaunt and force there sexuality on gay folks, and the ones that do are generally thought of as dumbasses, so please don't try to force your sexuality on us. we don't want to see it, just like we don't want to watch mixed sex couples kissing and groping one another in public. it's something for behind closed doors.

<quoted text>Do you really expect me to buy that stierscheiss about the difference between freedom and liberty? They are often used interchangeably in the English language.

Only colloquially by the legally ignorant, or by those seeking to benefit by fogging the definitions in the minds of others.
Again, "Freedom" is an absolute value. "Liberty" is contractually based.

Why oh Why? do you Liberals always find ways to infer or imply limitations on freedom? Don't you ever realize that once it's gone, it's going to cost a lot of blood to get it back!

<quoted text>I agree. And as a devout church-going Protestant what I find equally disgusting are those shameless Catholics that parade down the street on St. Patrick's Day and try to shove their Roman Catholicism down the throats of God-fearing Protestants like myself !

I don't mind Catholics but why do they have to flaunt it ?! Let them keep thier Roman catholicism behind close doors where decent American Protesants don't have it shoved in their faces everyday. My German Lutheran ancestors didn't flee Europe just to have the disgusting Roman Catholic lifestyle constantly paraded in front of them. DISGUSTING !

since you personally feel you can direct people where YOU see fit, I'll take it
Upon myself to do the same.
You should bend over and take my dick, then fuck your mom, and after that, we should put you in jail to be raped.
Or maybe this...
Just because you don't like something doesn't make it evil. Just don't watch it. We see heterosexual images everywhere. Underwear models, advertising (sex sells) I'm not gay, but if I were I wouldn't try to get all heterosexual people put in
An institution.
You don't see the gays forcing themselves on the American public, just nosey Christians Putting there noses where they don't belong.
Let's start killing and arresting Christians! They are the scary, sick, sadistic,twisted people. I mean they worship a torture scene(Jesus in the cross) I saw the passion in theatres, and everyone way crying and saying how beautiful it was to watch a man beaten and nailed to a tree. That's real "beautiful" and all, but violence and gore isn't allowed on daytime tv, neither should your shit...
