People choose to be gay. People don't choose to be a race. Is there a problem here?

Gays use legitimate Civil Rights issues and situations to continue their never ending insidious agenda to legitimize a sexual preference/perversion i.e. anal intercourse and promote it as a NATURAL offshoot of a legitimate lifestyle!
Martin Luther King was not referring to rights to sodomize children i.e. NAMBLA an ACLU protected pedophile organization.
Gay Rights to do what parade up and down Market Street making a spectacle of themselves half NAKED and in Drag...
no wonder people are confused especially Five year olds that see this trash!

how did someone get racial discrimination confused with being gay?
People don’t choose to be gay, why would they? Because no one that is straight would choose to go through the discrimination that gay's deal with. Being gay is not a choice, it is very difficult to live as someone that is gay. (I am not gay, this is just a thought.)
It is worse to be gay in this country, than to have yellow/red/chocolate/mocha/ orange color melanin in your skin.
--It is worse to be gay. because they do not have protection under the law in this country, if they cant get married, they cant pay taxes as a couple, they cant share property as a couple, they cant raise a family as a couple, so they do not have protection under the law, so therefore they are discriminated against.
-- Any race in America can get married, they can pay taxes jointly, they can buy, sell, trade, own property, and they can raise a family.
I am not dumb, and I am not denying that there is'nt racial discrimination in this country, Yes there is racial discrimination in America, although it is against the law,
Well against moral guidelines, its not against the law because no one goes to jail if they discriminate. They do go to jail if they commit a crime, and get a worse penalty if its a 'hate crime'.
Although discrimination is against moral guidelines, if someone is discriminated against and they can prove it they can sue, and the guilty will have to pay a fine that is protection under the law.
Yet to get back to the question,
They way that you where born is not your choice. Being gay is not a choice, having skin is not your choice, however they way that you act/ behave is your choice.
Discrimination is a behavior.
Discrimination Is a Choice.
People choose to discriminate.
The word Discrimination includes everyone. Everyone can be discriminated against. Discrimination does not mean only against race of those that have dark skin and light skin. For example, I have seen white boys that act black. He is white, he likes rap, yet its a problem because people think ohh white boys cant like rap. <--thats discriminating him because the color of his skin.
I am discriminated against, I am a woman.
So there is a problem, the bad word is discrimination.
Color is not a problem, everyone has skin, everyone has color, its normal to have skin, its normal to have color so thats not a problem. People that are gay have stated that they noticed when they where little and know that they have always been that way.
If there was only 1 gay person on the entire planet that was gay, then yes we could say that that person is abnormal although there is more than 1 person that is gay.
So discrimination is the problem here, not which discrimination is worse. If you say this is worse, then the other would have to be 'better', how could someone say this is a better discrimination than another?
What I think of any type of discrimination:
Really, Humanity does have far more problems on this planet that we need to deal with instead of people that act like immature little kids and cant get along with each other on the playground.

Well, I don't think people choose to be gay. I mean, did you choose to be straight (if you are)? But beyond that, I have a problem sometimes with gays equating their struggle with blacks. A gay person can walk down the street and unless he is being "flamboyant" no one will ever know he is gay. He won't be discriminated against unless he TELLS someone he is gay. A black person is immediately identified as black, whether he wants to be or not. He can be descriminated against from the moment the enters the room. The fact that a gay person can hide their orientation (and blacks can't) makes it an entirely different situation.

Of course there is. But, note, it's not always racism that's going on, usually it's ethnicicsm with a bit of egocentrism too. People seem to always get the two confused... Still, yes, there is a problem and you've pointed it out, if not a little bit descriminatory yourself. Recognition of choice is a problem with some issues of the whole 'racism' thing, though those that are gay don't seem to have much choice in the matter, if you look at how many go through pains to hide it. Just as you don't choose what color skin you are or what your culture is, you don't choose whether you like guys or girls, it just happens. What we all need to look at is the fact that, while different in appearance and practice, we all bleed the same way, we all breath the same air, we all walk on the same earth, we all are born the same way, therefore there is no difference between us beyond what is seen and understood.

Here's one thing most people are idiots. Racial discrimination is racial descrimination. Being gay is being gay. If you don't know how to separate those two you have a problem. (Mental problem) Now there is gay descrimination in which an individual(s) does not like you for you being gay. Again people nowadays are stupid and total idiots.

Actually, I think scientists have shown that sexual orientation is determined in the womb, so yeah, gay people don't choose to be gay.
Also, people discriminating against other people, based on who they are is wrong. Even if that's discriminating against them for wearing certain clothes, working a certain job, holding a person of the same sex's hand, or having a skin that's not the same as yours.

Yes, I agree. People who are gay simply get affended when someone disagrees with their lifestyle which people shouldn't do, but they do mistake that they were born that way. You weren't born straight or gay, but it's a discision you make. some people make it seem like gay is like a gender, or a condition. You are born a gender and some people are born with a condition. But we are not born already making decisions with our lives. lol! And we certaintly didn't choose what race we are. We were born either black, white, asain, hispanic, mixed, etc. I hope our fellow gays will someday get that. And we shouldn't discriminate againts them. Being gay is having a desire for somone of the same sex the same way you would do for the opposite, but you don't figure this out as a newborn baby, lol, our brains cells weren't developed at that time!

who gets those two confused?? perhaps your thinking of discrimination, which can happen due to race, gender, sexual orientation,,,,,,,, whereas racial discrimination would just be due to race,,,,,,
and actually, do people choose to be gay, or are they born that way?
and while a person may not choose their race, their parents in a way did, by who they mate with,,,,,

People don't usually choose to be gay either, at least thats my best understanding.
The thing is, all kinds of discrimination are similar.
If I never went crazy, as a white man, I might not understand discrimination and what it feels like at all.

a lot of people don't believe that people choose to be gay... there is a theory about hormones during pregnancy influencing one to be gay when they start forming sexual preferences.....
in other words.....some people believe it is not a choice so that discriminating against gays is just as wrong as discriminating against a person of a different race
