[BloodNorseGods]

@HyperSpeziFisch check out the interactive transcript

[HyperSpeziFisch]

if you ever have time, it would be extremely helpful to note in the description or somewhere, what parts of the tryal are featured in the respective youtube clips. just to help us finding a certain part of the trial we wanna rewatch.

@Rumours7791 And far as the straight people thing, what are you talking about, that's your personal view of the matter,Not everyone believes that. And exactly what do you mean by fucking whomever you want, you mean being promiscuous? Because the general moral person wouldn't do so regardless of sexual preference. it's not in the best interest of health and values.Certain Opinions of mankind are hypocritical, not the definition of sin. Practice what you preach or your a hypocrite, simple.

[Shadowlooker12]

@Rumours7791 The government is just waiting till society gets more and more outrageous and bends to the will of things. Then marriage can be done between anyone anywhere, people are getting dumber and more induced to following instead of leading daily with every generation born. Gay marriages existed before during Roman times, I personally have nothing against homosexuals or Lesbians, I just wonder how same sex marriage works when marriage was invented to bind women to men as property.

[kari4566]

I realize that there has always been some type of discrimination against homosexuals, but NEVER realized that it was to the extent pointed out in this trial, especially this chapter! I went through basic training with a young Navajo female, who happened to be homosexual. It shocked me when she told me her fear of being discovered and discharged. As a heterosexual female, I never had to have such a concern. Tt broke my heart to see a fellow Patriot, fear discharge for being herself.

[DblOSmith]

I'm learning so much from this.  Thank you!

[Mattmon2]

Wow. Gay people really got shit on.

[omniandros2]

This is pretty awesome. I wish there was something like this for every case. There are a few that I would like to watch.
