OTV: ‘A Lame Stereotype’

OrangeTV (RE: Hopefuls address Coeur d'Alene anti-bias law): "I pretty much agree with the other comments here. Surprised a bit by Kunka's utter battiness on this issue and I had no reason in particular to dislike him until now. And I really do. If you're a regular Souza follower, it's not hard to imagine how she really feels about those darned gays and basically, we are perverts of the highest order who are going right to the devil. We are only good for doing her hair and decorating her living room. I don't even care enough about her to bother getting worked up about her canned statements here. My only issue is that I wish that Widmyer had taken an even bolder, more supportive stance. Still, I appreciate that was a beacon of positive energy in the hot mess of ignorance that is this article. More than anything, the CDA Press headline writer should be smacked. "Sex and the city (government)" - c'mon! Being gay is about so much more that sex sex sex. It's a lame stereotype we've being trying to squash for years and has nothing at all to do with the actual ordinance. So annoying.

Thoughts?
