The Los Angeles Times believes that gays deserve rights. So do I.
The problem is that the LA Times is muddying the issue. The rights gays to practice homosexual behavior has not been in serious legal question for years. The rights of gays to vote or hold private property has never been questioned. So what rights are the Times referring to?
Answer: Gay marriage. Thus the LA Timesdeceivingly delivers same-sex marriage propaganda under a guise of rights enumeration. But the right of a very small minority to radically change the definition of a human institution which has possessed an intrinsic definition for thousands of years is not quite so black and white.
But for the Times, as it is for gay marriage enthusiasts in general, the significance of marriage compared with the significance of the absolute autonomy of the unbridled individual is minute at best.
