I just want everybody to be free to live their lives as normal, without discrimination, coercion, or segregation. How on earth is this 'controversial'?

Because it is a radical concept.

When the Dec of Ind declared "all men are created equal" & endowed by God w/ "inalienable rights to life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness," that was a radical challenge to the aristocratic paradigm of the day. It was radical then and for the very same reason it's radical today

I get where you're coming from and you're correct on the first part. However, I only disagree because, while it may have been radical at the time when the Union was formed, Americans have lived under those exact ideals for 245 years. It actually shouldn't be radical today.

Ah, but it is! In many ways we've reverted to the same aristocratic paradigm we were fighting in 1776, but instead of British landed gentry today it's multi-national corporations.

I agree big government has sided with big business. It is killing us all and dividing us as well.

Here in Britain the gentry have also given a free pass to those multi-national corporations and we've been fighting them since 1066!
