Nice. Let's rephrase that for a second and see how silly it sounds:
What rights do heterosexuals have that normal people do not?
It's easy to throw those words "deviant" and "normal" around. I'm just curious, do you understand that you're talking about real people with real lives who live and love and have families just like you do, or are you not aware of the very real harm attitudes like yours bring to the people you are degrading here?
First, let's start with, oh, say, the right to marry the person we love, with the 1000+ rights that go with that. In more than 20 states, homosexuals can be discriminated against in employment, housing, adoption, familial relationship, divorce proceedings, public educational institutions, etc.
All we are talking about here is guaranteeing that people are treated equally under the law, which is one of the core values of this country.
