OMG WHO ALLOWED HIM TO SHOW THOSE PHOTOS OF THE GAY AGENDA BOOK!!! We are doomed.

I would love it if the people on here could just stop arguing. Any people who believe in the "gay agenda" obviously won't change their views because of people on the internet. They'll never believe that all we want is to be treated with respect as human beings, and that if you treat somebody badly, it better be because they're dicks and not because they're not straight.

"run for your heterosexual life people" 😂

"This is the super duper evil gay lifestyle. Run for your heterosexual lives, people!" 5:18

Property value goes up when gay people move into a neighborhood. Nobody complains about that part of the agenda.

It's not a myth. They are are fighting to teach our kids in public schools about gender and sexuality. Kindergarten through 3rd grade. This is no joke

[geordirendum]

it is not about normalizing its about acceptance in the difference. We have to stop trying to make everyone ''normal''. We should promote difference as something good rather than trying to normalize every one.

Matthew 7:12 - "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets."  If you aren't following the Golden Rule of the bible, then you are not following God and no one will believe that you are.  Why is that religious zealots demand that others follow the bible to the letter but they feel that they...just don't have to.  There is NO valid argument against homosexuals, religious or otherwise.

[rashisdachan]

I always found it funny when some people say that we're evil and want to "normalize" homosexuality but they don't even know what they mean by "normal" like did y'all talk to nature and it told you what's normal and what's not ? Who decided that heterosexuality was normal and homosexuality was not normal? Explain normal ?

This man knows his stuff. He exposes the "Gay Agenda" as the myth it is. Good on you Mr Granderson.

This is awkward given the Disney executive admitting their not secret gay agenda.

[Jairakiss]

I like how is black and comparing gay rights to blacks and the women's movement, I often hear people say "Gay is not the new black, they haven't suffered nearly as much as what the blacks went through"  

In the few hundred year time frame that's for surely true, I don`t know if any of are in a position to say as far as thousands of years of history goes. But even if so, I`m not sure it matters who suffers more, why should any minority have to suffer because another group feels a need to be superior?

Well there! this guy gets it!

[danhibiki]

Now Disney employees have confessed they are pushing the Gay agenda on your kids

Love - "the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another" You're correct. This will change the world for better. I try to remind myself of this every day. Thanks!
