I want 2 respond 2 ur view on homosexuality. In regards 2 ur question inquiring about having homosexual activity now on TV; I see that as growth. Maybe 10 yrs ago when Ellen came out on her #1 hit tv show, the show was cancelled. This was a very taboo subject & I think society is now changing. You asked, "what about the children?" Why you think the children's minds will be tainted by viewing "homosexual" relations on tv, is COMPLETE IGNORANCE. I think you should study & see that facts & statistics have shown, children growing up in a family w/same sex parents aren't affected any different than children growing up in a family w/heterosexual parents. At the end of the day children require the same - love & attention. Who they get it from is irrelevant as long as it is received. You say the act of homosexuality can not reproduce any young; biologically you are correct. However, that is why there are other ways for homosexual couples to produce, so if you are wondering about our population dying out, w/all the people in this world, I think that should be the least of your worries. I quote you in saying, "People are going all around the country fighting hard to promote this behavior." Well that is correct. They are fighting for equality, for the same rights as you receive. They pay taxes & follow the law just as u do, but because of who they lay next 2 at night, they are not eligible? That is ludicrous & unconstitutional. They are not asking u 2 agree w/it or even accept it, they are simply asking 4 the same rights that everyone else receives, NOTHING MORE & NOTHING LESS.
Regardless of what school ur teenage son & daughter may attend, they are going 2 see homosexual children/teens/adults in life no matter how well u shelter them. I hope & pray that u teach them 2 treat people based on the content of their character & not judge them based on who they choose 2 have relations with. Homosexuals aren't trying 2 promote themselves in general just to, the only reason they are trying 2 be heard is SOLELY because of equality; Having the same rights as you get & that's it. U asked, "Why do most people who are in this, instinctively & initially, cover this act?" That's because due 2 ignorance, homosexuality isn't accepted everywhere. Homosexuals don't want 2 get picked on & bullied so they try & hide it until the time is right FOR THEM & until they get the strength 2 hold their head high & fight 4 what is right 4 themselves against people like u who think their lifestyle is wrong. So they're not hiding themselves because they think it is wrong, they're hiding due 2 lack of acceptance everywhere & 2 protect themselves! Homosexuals aren't asking u 2 change your morals, they're not even asking you 2 accept them, they're simply asking 2 no longer be second class citizens.
One day this will be like slavery-- an issue of the past. One day homosexuals will have the same rights as everyone else & they will be FREE.

"Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right"... very interesting quote & in my opinion, very broad in its meaning. You think for someone to get killed due to being sentenced to death is wrong. I don't. So to me, that doesn't apply to "two wrongs don't make a right". If there are no consequences for ones actions, this world would be full of crime, worse than it is. USA as a country has to set boundaries and abide by them. Everyone on death row had free will just like every other human being in this country. If you break the rules, you suffer the consequences, regardless if it is slap on the wrist, getting grounded from your parents, put in prison by the law, or getting the death sentence from the law. My heart truly goes out to you as I have been reading your blog for awhile now. You have brought light to alot of things and I enjoy all of your posts. I haven't really commented but I had to on this one. I don't agree w/what you are saying on this post.

RESPECTFULLY;
Jessica C. E.

I'm not able to send you a typewriter or wire you money, but I am willing to transcribe you writ if you post it. Also, just curious, why do they make you BUY your court transcripts? Shouldn't that information be available to you if you're involved in it ?

Hey, I just transcribed your blog. Should be writing a speech for school, but your blog was a million times more interesting. Not sure if my fingers are up to typing anymore though..

But wow, you have a crazy, messed up story. But then again, isn't that just called life? You're amazingly strong through all of the injustice, and I really respect you for that.

I know you took the effort to write so much, and I'd love to reply to everything you said, but unfortunately 10 pages are a bit much for me... Hopefully this will suffice though?

Oh, and I'm interested in knowing... did you get released in early 2012? I suppose if you don't get this, that's a yes.

Wishing you the best though! Stay strong. You probably don't need that, but like you, I have weird thought process and usually write everything that comes to mind.

Looking forward to reading more of your blogs!

Thanks for writing! I finished your transcription. What you say is so true. As I was typing it, I re-read what you said about gift-envy and gift-protection and that completely applies to me. I've always thought that I'm an egomaniac by nature, but reading that made me a little comforted by the fact that others do those things too. Oh, and I loved your metaphor with the rainbows and orchestra... brilliant!
