@mak1759 They've already purchased their passport, and have set the charges to dynamite the entire border...the outboard motors still have to be installed along the panhandle, though, and then there's the problem of getting it out of the Gulf of Mexico under cover of darkness...

Freedom and equality for GLBT will not be won by one party. Why are GLBT members brainwashed that the Democratic party will solve all their problems? They never have! Get around the religeous right and there is a real movement for freedom and liberty. Otherwise, join forces with the Libertarian Party. The Democratic party is a disaster train heading to destroy the American Economy just to sustain its power. Fight back with your local organizations, but be bi-partisan.

The cops were sent by the Bush Klan more then likely, the gays better start picking up some mother fucken bricks and bashing some fucken pigs heads in, what a bunch of hillbilly pigs.

@MrBongo43 Remember how good the American Indian men had it. Spend all summer hunting and fishing, having a occasional war party to steal some strange women and different horses. Spent all winter sitting around talking about the next summer. What more could a man ask for??

The women did all the work and had little or no say in what the men did. Early European religions where woman were the "God" made women do all the work.

Sounds great to me!!!

One of the few good things the cops actually did. Men having sex with men is absolutely disgusting. Fuck off all you weak minded Americans that accept this type of immoral behavior. This type of behavior goes beyond that of an animals. Its Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. Fucking abnormal and sick. Bitch slap the person that first said that being gay is ok. No its not. Its disgusting.
