And unable to think for themselves.
WTFBlogs readers know I am a staunch supporter of gay rights, and to post any kind of articles I have to do research. When it comes to gay marriage, when researching the opposition, I go to the same place, National Organization Of Marriage, its many websites and also its face book page.
Not only are these websites full of fabricated bullshit, but the people that support them remind me of sheep. NOM tells them to BAAHHH and guess what they do? They BAAHHH!
Prime example is below, on the NOM facebook page, Leigh Boland Healy, took the opportunity to inform her fellow sheep that civil unions were OFFERED the same rights as marriage, but us petty gays rejected them.
Now this struck me as kinda odd, but to make sure I did a lil research myself, because I like to know the fact before I comment on anything.
Read the below,
The first civil unions in the United States were offered by the state of Vermont in 2000. The federal government does not recognize these unions, and under the U.S. Defense of Marriage Act of 1996 (DOMA), other U.S. states are not obliged to recognize them. By the end of 2006, Connecticut and New Jersey had also enacted civil union laws; New Hampshire followed in 2007. Furthermore, California’s domestic partnership law had been expanded to the point that it became practically a civil union law, as well. The same might be said for domestic partnership in the District of Columbia, domestic partnership in Washington, and domestic partnership in Oregon.
So tell me Leigh (pictured to the left), how could gay people of been offered those 1200 federal rights in 2000 when it was not even legal to offer them? because…you guessed it, DOMA was passed 4 years previously.
Now… I don’t know Leigh, although her picture makes her look like a 2 cent hooker, and I imagine with those 4inches of makeup on her face, that she is no longer a virgin (her parents must be so proud) and not married, she probably also LOVES shellfish, but thats just MY OPINION, I’m going to be nice to Leigh…I am going to try and educate our lil Leigh.
Leigh, when voting to take away somebody’s rights, RESEARCH what you are voting for, take the time to REALLY research, do NOT rely on ONE organization for all your “fact”s.
Should you feel the need to message Leigh, send her some love, and not hate mail, although should you decide to WTFBLOG will not be held responsible.
Full conversation can be found below:
UPDATE: After posting the blog in the NOM FB page, of course our number 1 fan Leigh was going to read it, she even replied about the blog!

James what you don’t seem to realize is that nothing you do bothers me. I’m not here to be your friend or try to impress you. What God thinks of me is the only thing I’m concerned with. You can’t change that. Only I can. It’s fine if you want to laugh at me and make fun of me. I’m sure you’ve spent the majority of your life being laughed at …
Read Moreand made fun of and you probably feel the need to push that off on others. Your mockery doesn’t change the fact that your lifestyle will never be normal or acceptable to God or people with morals. Nothing you can do can change that either. Your actions will always be perverted and despicable. The word “marriage” won’t make your lifetsyle normal. It’s really hopeless.
Since then she has removed her picture form Facebook and made her profile private, I would like to remind you that she is NOT bothered by the article.
