Why do gay people get special treatment?
January 30, 2006
Editor:
I am amazed by Roger E. Carrier’s letter (“Support the LGBT community,” Jan. 26).
Why should we pay people for being gay? Nobody is paying me to be straight!
While researching the U before deciding to attend, I noticed that there are scholarships available for homosexuals. The requirement to receive the scholarship is to either be gay or to have “contributed significantly to the gay community.”
Am I the only person who can see the discrimination? Why should sexual orientation qualify somebody for a scholarship? Why doesn’t the school give out scholarships that are only available to straight people?
Not only does the school encourage sexual perversion by offering homosexuals a free education, but now Carrier thinks that we should give gay people a million dollars! And the only qualification they have to be deserving of our money is the fact that they are gay. Why don’t I get a million dollars for being straight?
Carrier’s concern is that we are sending a bad image of our state to the world. Personally, I don’t want to send the message that we are a state full of perverts.
Maybe we should use a million dollars for a building that celebrates morality and sexual purity rather than perversion. That is the message that I would like to send to the world. ??

Since when did being straight become a bad thing. The federal court and white house have provided special treatment for special groups but without keeping control. Holidays used to be celebrated to honor a hero, a victory, and holiday that represented united-love-respect. The United States together with other nations have become weak and have lost control of the meaning equal rights and freedom of speech.
Now we are celebrating gender and race; which in turn are causing division and signaling out some, and leaving others out:
1) LGBTQ receives a whole month to celebrate their queer gender identify; we are not talking about biological gender birth. Are trying to overturn normal vocabulary language into their own language and are blaming the rest of the community for not understanding their made up language and meaning. LGBTQ is trying to over turn the federal courts and trying to make the whole world and straight turn into their LGBTQ world and that in its own is discrimination. Muslims have their own culture and language but you don’t see them trying to overturn the system to influence and enforce their believes on the community. So why is the federal courts allowing LGBTQ to enforce their made up language and overturn biological gender identity on the community?
