Daily Mail: From The Message Boards

I am 20 years-old and consider myself a conservative voter with liberal views, and like most people, I have gay friends. But I am also a Christian, who believes that a marriage should be between a man and woman in a church. I told my fellow course-mates this in a lecture, during a debate. I was quickly labelled a 'homophobe' and a indeed, a 'bigot' for saying this. My overly left-wing lecturer also scowled at me for holding this view, as if I was proposing the slaughter of small puppies. Why can't we have a sensible debate about this without being bullied by so-called 'liberals'? 

What do you mean "Like most people, I have gay friends". I don't have any gay friends, my family don't have gay friends and most if not all the people I know DON'T have gay friends. If you move in those circles I suppose you get to believe nearly everyone is 'gay'. Well they are NOT.

Well said - I don't have any homosexual friends, either, nor do my family, their friends, nor is anyone I work with (30 people), and even if someone is, it would appear they treat it as a personal and private matter and would receive my respect for doing so. Everyone I have spoken to about this ridiculous homosexual marriage business is against it and angry at MPs for promoting it. I am willing to live in tolerance of homosexuality but when their way of life starts to assault those things - such as marriage - that I hold dear, then my tolerance stops.

If "most British people are in favour of gay marriage", how come I don't know anyone who is? Where does your information or "facts" come from? Wishful thinking? If men want to live with men in a sexual relationship, fair enough, likewise lesbians. I think Clare Balding, Mary Portas etc are lovely people - I'm not bothered about who they live with.

Cameron will never satisfy the gay lobbyists. I mentioned to a friend of mine how much I liked a Donna Summer record. Immediately he bit my head and lost his temper, shouting "even though she's anti-gay?". She was not of course, and even if she was she still made exceptional records. After 30 years of friendship I am still not allowed to express an opinion with which he disagrees.

As I write this I am listening to Radio 4 which is still the best radio channel on the air. But, of course it's Woman's Hour at this time of the morning and guess what Jenni Murray is of course interviewing a Lesbian Feminist. I think this kind of sums up the BBC and its dominance by the Liberal Left who use it to "brain wash" the rest of us. So different from the BBC I remember as a teenager in the 1960's.

If we had gay marriage 2 hundred years ago , we would have considerably less children , therefor less pensioners , resulting in fewer NHS pressures. I wonder what the country will look like in 200 years time, all these lesbians and and gay couples trying to buy babies? is this what we really want , the beginning of the end of families

And the clincher... We are not allowed to talk about the freedom of speech.

The Daily Mail - As ever sharing the hilarity of right-wing stupidity and bigotry with the nation.

I could go on, but you know, fuck 'em, basically.

PS These are all real.
