Why is this so damned hard to understand? Pretty much everybody would agree that you don't put prepubescent boys and girls together in the same tent and you damned sure don't do it when they're teens. You also don't send some adult male off into the wilderness all alone with a group of girls. That's pretty easy to understand but for some weird reason that same common sense shouldn't apply to homosexuals? Why the hell not!!??
It is your right to decide to not "mix" with whoever you want. :mrgreen:
True in some senses.....however, your individual right to choose not to mix does not extend to businesses, private or public. See....if you want to live in America, you have to abide by the Constitution. What you do as an individual with yourself is your business.
The girl scouts allow men to be scout leaders and girl scouts do go camping. Although I highly doubt they are the only adult out there. If they were that would be stupid for a multitude of reasons.
And I eagerly await the freakishly hateful statements that will inevitably come from people like the Family Research Council.
businesses have "the right" to refuse service to anyone they wish... "no shirt, no shoes, no service" etc. however, the public also has "the right" not to spend money in those businesses.
If some dumbass is willing to alienate a sizable % of the consuming public...then they have "the right" to do so and face the consequences

I think You will see it, if...
Do you get turned on when you shower with someone of the other sex?
If You say "Yes" I think You should have some problems with sex at all...
I'm not ignoring the Constitution with my argument.
Not necessarily, no.Like I said, my complaint is that this creates a "special" bloc in the unit.
It's a shortcut to "respect" that the other kids don't get and instead of instilling the principles by which one earns respect it shows the kids that there is always a way to cop out and get something for free that others have to earn.
excuse me for being a poor country boy from Alabama. I have probably met less than 3000 people in my entire life (and a big chunk of them were in the military so the % of gays there was much lower than average). plus the % of gays in Alabama is less than half the national average (AL has the 9th lowest gay pop in the country)
taking all that into consideration, I ve most likely only met 30-40 gay people in my entire life. 30-40 over a span of 50 years is not "many, many".
so while I may not "be the norm"...that is not what was claimed. the claim was that "You have met many, many gay people, men and women, without having the faintest clue about their orientation.
EVERYONE has, WITHOUT EXCEPTION".
Then you must agree with my position.
Is logic somehow unconstitutional?
Depends on what you are saying. If you are saying that an individual person can choose who they want to associate aka "mix" with, you are correct. However, that does not apply to businesses or associations whether public or private.
The constitution allows people to make crap up
Yes, it does.
Ignoring that I made nothing up??
It doesn't apply to business
Not at all
Noticing that you're repeatedly made stuff up
Where is that written in the amendment? Care to tell me? I seem to recall it making no such distinction.
It is the law.
What you recall is wrong
Nope, the Constitution makes no such distinction. I just checked and it turns out I remembered correctly.
You are making an argument by authority.
You lose
Lol! You're the guy that brought it up, so where is this distinction in the amendment in question? Did you find it yet?
And you're the one who claimed it was an argument by authority
You're still losing
