Cropsey is biased

I have followed state Sen. Alan Cropsey’s personal attack on the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transsexual community. I think his time would be better spent focusing on his own family, rather than obsessing about mine.

When my employers hired me, they expected me to eventually marry and reproduce. Due to his attack on my civil rights and his ability to persuade the frightened, misguided sheep about the GLBT community, my partner of over five years is not entitled to my benefits. This is discrimination in its highest form.

If he is a “good Christian” - and he states he is - then why is it he picks and chooses which of “God’s laws” to follow or ignore?

I am sure Bob Jones University did not teach him that only some of “God’s laws” are relevant and some aren’t. It is for “God” to judge, not his followers!
