No silent agenda

Gay agenda’s, Gay propaganda, Gay bullying, Gay entitlement! If only any of this was true, but in our current condition of louder is truth, fiction is fact, God carried an assault rifle, Jesus was really the first president of the US it seems that anything Gay is either the coming of Satan, Socialism, Communism, Fascism the decline of religion and of course the death knell for families, wholesomeness, religious freedoms and apple pie gone rotten. Gays demanding fair and equal, justice and common ground seem to shake the foundations of the insecure religious zealots, who have nothing to fear but the handily made up terror presented to them by really smart people who truly hate really dumb people. The louder the nonsense, the more intense the ridiculous, the greater the guttural sounds of stupid, the more the smart silent people are dismissed leaving MORE room for the very, very, very ignorant who have learned bias and bigotry from Mom, Dad, Pastors, Preachers, and billionaire entertainers on FOX to govern this nation.

One Million Moms, claims they are "highly offended" by Nabisco's “disrespect of millions of American families by supporting the homosexual agenda,” "Nabisco should be ashamed of themselves for their latest Honey Maid and Graham Cracker commercial where they attempt to normalize sin," members of One Million Moms wrote on the group's website. "Right away it shows two men with a baby, followed by other families, and ends with different families pictured including the one with two dads.” A Republican candidate who believes that God dictates weather patterns and that tornadoes, autism and dementia are God's punishments for marriage equality and abortion access won the GOP nomination to challenge Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) in the Chicago-area 9th Congressional District.
For decades I lived with the insecurity that perhaps I might be Gay, then the fear of what if I AM Gay and finally the realization that I must come out of some closet, built and protected by others. I felt powerless, at times as if I was a loser, moments of shame and as the stupid million moms love to state sinful. I wished so much to have the power to be alright, never considering at first that BEING alright is a subjective term. My agenda was to be me, my propaganda was for others to see me as real, my bullying was to get those who saw me as a Gay man first to look closer, my entitlement was to enjoy life as my heterosexual friends did. When the freedom of coming out happened I swore to never, ever permit the insanity of the insecure, the baseless bias of the bigoted, the use God as your scapegoat for your own human frailties to deny me my share of the apple pie, the very sweet, tart, tasty pie!
It seems this nation has permitted the shrill to state the direction this nation must take both politically and culturally. We allowed demigods to become prophets, snake oil salesmen to provide remedies, puppet masters to manipulate the momentum, We let liars have the last word  hateful self loathing low life to write books, appear on news stations, run for office, preach chapter and verse from abridged Bibles and imaginary Constitutions. We have created monsters, loud, abrasive, belligerent  abusive monsters to set the goals for America. How much longer will the willful, the wise, the wanderers remain silent? When will it be too late to talk above the fray of ignorant rants and retake America and remake this nation into a democracy of decency? Silence is no longer golden, not when loud is loose and dangerous.
