i'm sorry from the start if this offends you, but according to the 2010 census, the government will not recognize legal gay marriages, basically saying that gay people do not exist. the red cross (locally and nationally is running out of blood) but still refuses to take gay people's blood donations because "only gay people get diseases". after 9/11, the salvation army refused to give compensation to the families or partners of gay people killed . . . so the next time i hear a black person say they are discriminated against in this country, i'm going to tell them to go FUCK THEMSELF!
