 D'oh -- use Wiki search. ;-)

 OK, if it's your personal bias, nothing can be done. Unless I can invite you 
for a drink and we will talk this over. :-)

 Yes, if. They did ask us to do it for'em, no?

 Agree. We all did that. :-) Wise men will learn for such experience.

 Warn them, try to convice them. Sure. Not point them with a pointy stick or a 
gun. They are free to ignore your ,,warning''. They may warn you, too -- we 
both see things from a different angle.

 No. I don't mix that. Also, I hate political correctness, it may be even 
first time when I somehow promoted ,,gay freedom''. ;-)

 But, you see, freedom is also about giving freedom that you dislike. I'm 
libertarian, but I will never use power to shut down socialists, communists 
or facists. Unless they would act against me. Talking, building themed 
LiveCD, and even, protesting it's thier right.

 You know that there's no gay tax-cut? So, if they pay taxes, like we do, they 
are citizens like you or me. 

 I'm not fighting for gay rights to say things. I'm fighing for my rights. If 
they can force them to shut up, once they can force you or me.
