F-ck the Amer-can F-mily Ass-ciation (2:32 pm)
The American Family Association is now referring to LGBT people as “g-ys” and same-sex relationships as “h-mos-xuality,” as if these words were expletives, reports Political Research Associates, a nonprofit that tracks the Right. (Or should that be “the R-ght”?)
Meanwhile, the California Supreme Court overturned the state’s ban on marriage equality today. That’s the good news.
The bad? A coalition of socially conservative groups is trying to amend the California constitution to ban same-sex marriage. The measure could appear on the November ballot.
The secretary of state is expected to rule by the end of June whether the conservative groups have gathered enough signatures to bring the measure to a statewide referendum vote, reports The Advocate.

No, no, you’ve got it all wrong.
The American Family Association is an orthodox Jewish organization.
Referring to gays as g-ys is an indication of profound respect.
Laws should not be changed to cater to an individual’s “sexual preference”. Obviously AFA is a form of conviction that people of this lifestyle don’t want to hear. Get rid of morals and you have an anything goes society. If someone is gay--then be gay, but quit whining and complaining of special rights.
