NC Passes Amendment One

[Alcon]

Columbus County, N.C., must be an interesting place...89% Yes on this, and 46% of Democratic votes were for Uncommitted over Obama.

Incredibly disappointing result, though.

The Left's standard approach to convincing people to support gay marriage:

1. Call those who don't support it homophobes and bigots.
2. If that doesn't work, call them repressed homosexuals.

Maybe this isn't the best strategy.

And by "the left," do you happen to mean "a small portion of vocal ideologues matched by a comparably disappointing sub-section of the right"?

Also, Napoleon, I have no idea why calling someone a closeted homosexual is "punishment" for opposing gay marriage that he would deserve for being "malicious."  As much as I find TJ's position morally disgusting (sorry, man...it is) your response make no sense, and perfectly good people can hold morally reprehensible positions well good intentions.

This thread is a small trainwreck.

It isn't punishment for anything, it's a regurgitated Marokai meme. The intentions can be good or bad but the actual effect that child would feel is what concerns me.

You defended it by saying that he was "malicious."  How can you possibly think your behavior in this thread is anything but counterproductive and juvenile?
