Each of these arguments are cloaked in the idea that establishing the rights of some somehow diminishes the rights of others, This line of reasoning has always claimed no bigotry, discrimination or hatred is intended, only the protection of “others” rights.

Our country has never given credence to this argument; inclusion, love and acceptance have a track record, after long efforts, of wining the day. To the many who embrace this line of reasoning and believe they are not engaging in bigotry. I urge each of you to gain insight before you find yourselves forever assigned to the historical trash heap of haters, bigots and defenders of the establishment!
