Gays have never been oppressed like black people have, just most people find homosexual marriage to be absurd, and not on the same playing field as real marriage! Humanity has hummed along quite nicely for a couple of thousand years without the need of gay marriage. You don't have to go all the way to Iran to find "freedom haters," just go to France. Over one million French men, women, and children marched in French cities against the passing of gay marriages. You're the reason why people think Americans are morons for the most part, most sane people are against gay marriage, not just Ayatollahs in Iran. Go spout your pro gay marriage crap in any hispanic or black neighborhood in America, you might leave with a black eye though.
