“I have a big passion about civil rights for everyone - whoever is being downtrodden at the moment, it doesn't matter: racial discrimination or sexual orientation or gender. Whatever it is, I'm there. I think I was a born civil rights activist. I can't stand the smashing of a community. It's not fair and it's not right.” ThinkingI CanMatterMomentsBigsPassionBornCommunityRightsFairsGenderDiscriminationCivil RightsActivistOrientationNot FairRacial DiscriminationSmashingDowntrodden Author:Pauley Perrette
“I do not favor same-sex marriage. I oppose same-sex marriage, and that has been my view. But, but if people are looking for someone who will discriminate against gays or will in any way try and suggest that people that have different sexual orientation don't have full rights in this country, they won't find that in me.” PeopleIfsWayTryingHas BeensDifferentCountrySexViewsRightsGayFavorsOrientation Author:Mitt Romney

“The great paradox of the civil rights revolution is that instead of enforcing and expanding equality before the law, the revolution created differential rights based on race, gender and, any day now, sexual orientation. The great liberal revolution, centuries in the making, that brought forth equality in law has been overthrown. In its place we see rising a new feudal legal order of status-based rights.” Has BeensLawOrderRaceRightsCenturyRevolutionGenderCivil RightsRisingParadoxExpandingIn-lawsOrientationGreat Liberal Author:Paul Craig Roberts
