I don't like labels on people, in some respects, because they attempt in one word to define a complex human being. so I work hard at labeling each thought or idea streaming from a person separately

As to the gay issue I never viewed it as a civil rights issue and I don't care what people do in their bedrooms . However I do care how this movement is damaging our society everywhere. I do care that they attempt to eliminate gender and I do care that they demanded the definition of marriage be re-defined. Opponents will label me bias, a homophobic etc but its not the person its the act. Gays thrived in corporations to wit look who runs Apple today. No their quest was to demand that their lifestyle be viewed as normal hence their need to re-define marriage. Hollywood et al continue to push this movement into mainstream America because to normalize it is to socialize it and isn't it great to have a gay friend.

conversely I would speak out against anyone who would attempt to humiliated, bully etc

Again the problem with labels are they are too confining. Not all Tea Party members totally believe in all the same things. People join or support an organization because they may find some of what they believe etc.

I am a Catholic but I do not believe everything the Church teaches. Some call it being a cafeteria catholic but I call it reasoning. Finally I attempt to respect other people's opinions
