This happened at Home Depot today.
Apparently Home Depot 'sponsored' a Gay Rights 'thing' in California which has caused some "Religious" people to go nuts !
One of them came in the store today. He said he wanted to talk to a manager about this "Homo stuff" at Home Depot. A manager was called and came to the front. This 'religious fanatic' told our manager what he thought about Home Depot's stand on gay rights and that he would no longer be shopping at Home Depot. This man didn't come in as a customer. He didn't buy anything; he didn't even look around; he just came in solely to complain ! He could not be considered a 'customer'. He was a 'complainer'. Our assistant manager said "Home Depot strives to not discriminate against anyone; and neither me nor you were put here on Earth to judge other people!" We all said, "BRAVO !!!!!" to our assistant manager.
WHAT I WISH I COULD HAVE SAID: In hind-sight and with a clear mind, I wish I COULD have said to this closed-minded bigot any number of the following responses:
1. I'll be glad when I get to heaven because there won't be anybody who thinks like you there !
2. Judge not least ye be judged.
3. Eat sh...t and die, MF !
4. Get the F...k out of this store and stay out! We don't need "your" kind here anyway!
5. All of the above.
Add anymore responses and return to me. Thanks.

Straighten Up !
Well, I've seen it again. Prejudice at work. While at work a "friend of a friend" of mine came in. I know he's gay and he knows I am. He was shopping and three local firemen came in--you know the type, rugged, all-man, no-nonsense and generally un-accepting of others. Well, my friend rounded a corner where two of these firemen were standing and struck up a conversation with the older one. They must know each other ----somehow ! Anyway, when my friend walked away the older fireman said to the younger one "That man's a fag!" and they both laughed and watched my friend walk around the corner to finish shopping. This older fireman was bald, fat, and my gay-dar went off LOUD ! So, what was he doing? Trying to prove to the younger new-bie that he himself WASN'T a 'fag' when in fact he probably IS ? You only hate yourself when you hate others --especially if you are trying desperately to separate yourself from WHAT you really are. As Shakespeare said, "Me thinks thou doest protest too much". Shakespeare was a smart man.
