You got me. I haven't read the Medina case, just the story that made the local papers. The headline read "Court Says Gays Can Be Harrassed" or words to that effect. The text of the story said that the court specifically exempted gays as a protected group.

However, the details of this case - or any other - don't change the important fact that gays are second class citizens. That was held in the Bowers ruling, which is still the precedent today.

Who is more likely to remedy gay people's second class status, Republicans or Democrats? The Republicans on this forum have responded by denying that any such distinction exists, it's all in our heads! Clearly we can't look to the Republicans for any help.

That being the case, we look to the Democrats. This is a party of real inclusion, not pageants or minstrel shows. Join us! We won't cheat you out of your vote, like scumbag George Bush did.
