Yes, I agree that the
individuals who make up the party obviously vary in their sexual practices. However, it is quite obvious that the
party as a whole has had no problem with shitting on gay rights. They have had no problem with or have actively contributed to all of the following:
Attempts to ban gay marriage
Attempts to allow employment discrimination against gays
Attempts to deny benefits for same sex couples
So yes, the individuals have their own opinions about the subject but the ones controlling the party have no problems with these actions. They also have no problem aligning with and accepting money from extreme anti-gay groups.
