Maybe we should ask those 2 guys from Laramie that tied Matthew Shepherd to a fence and beat him to death. But I think you may have hit the nail on the head with "complete idiot". So we need to base nation political policy on what guys like that perfer. We wouldn't want to infringe on their constitutional right to work in a fag free workplace.

I think we should we ban gays from other dangerous industries. Like how can you trust a gay Co-Pilot when all he will be doing is checking out your ass. What about gay city bus drivers. I mean there could be kids on that bus for christs sake. Then where would we be. Why should my kids be subjected to having to ride on a bus with a gay driver. Why can't the gays stick to styling hair and picking throw pillows.
Originally Posted By The IRONMAN Well I agree with you yates. I spent last week roofing some small condos. There were about 6 roofers there working together. We seemed to be there in pairs. We didn't know each other as the GC was in a hurry and hired more than one company. It was long hard work and it doesn't take a lot of brains if you know what you are doing. Let's face it, it ain't hard to do it right. There was a rare thing on the job last week, a young woman. I imagine she was maybe 28-32 or so years old. She was pretty, young, firm somewhat muscular legs, tan you know, a real looker. It is not relevant but I will add that she was Hispanic. Anyway, you could have been shooting bullets at my forehead and I wouldn't have noticed for looking at her. Being suddenly single I am finding is very liberating. I am seeing the world in a completely different light. Now I know in combat, the gay soldier is not going to be any different than the straight. Survival is about being a team, but roofing ain't a military operation. In combat, I would NOT be staring at her. Ban gays from the military? No. Ban gays from roofing? Well that would need to be considered on a case by case basis. jk
