Odd Homophobic Rhetoric

I found this odd rhetoric on a news article about the recent repeal of "Don't Ask Don't Tell."

My background is in ecology and evolutionary biology so I tend to think that homosexuality is a product of genetics, not a choice. The alternative viewpoint, that homosexuality is a choice, is not viable, from my perspective. Homosexuals have no more choice about who they are attracted to than do heterosexuals. Lines of evidence resulting from scientific inquiry supports this and I'm certain I can find papers and links to substantiate my assertion.

Below is the string of comments I found simply confounding"
Dalphonso writes:

Public sexual perversion isn't something I will ever tolerate. Homosexuality isn't a condition any more than beastiality or incest is a condition. It's a behavior.

This law is one step further towards the ultimate goal of forcing acceptance of deviant sexual behavior on those of us who are repulsed by it.

Now more of our tax dollars are going to be wasted on treating hepatitis within the military while decreasing the overall fighting ability. The U.S. is rotting from within because fewer people have the courage to stand up against our domestic enemies.

So, in your thought process there is no difference between a gay person and a child molester? Is that what you are trying to say?

If that were what I was trying to say I would have said it. As it is, I didn't. Brush up on your reading skills.

Are gay people your enemy? The way I was always taught by my parents was to mind my own business, but if you see someone being treated unfairly then try to help them.

Rhetoric like yours was what escalated into the hatred that fueled Nazi Germany.

Forcing someone to accept and fund your own deviant behavior is hardly "minding your own business" wouldn't you say? Does it sound fair to you?

Those who seek to destroy this country and its ability to defend itself are my enemy. Sexual behavior isn't the defining characteristic. Such comments as you made are an attempt to silence me rather than engage me in debate.

I do wish those of you who disagree with me could come up with something more than the canned (and inaccurate) arguments that could have been copied and pasted from other sites. I'm putting original thoughts into my posts and you guys are are just reacting with regurgitated accusations that do not address my actual comments.

Please try harder. I enjoy a good debate with anyone intelligent enough to provide one.

"Homosexuality isn't a condition any more than beastiality or incest is a condition. It's a behavior."

That is exactly what you said! Can you tell me what the difference is between a child molester and someone who prefers animals or their sibling?

You say, "This law is one step further towards the ultimate goal of forcing acceptance of deviant sexual behavior on those of us who are repulsed by it."

I'm probably not the person to have the debate you ask for later, but some things you say make me curious. By the statement I just put in quotes, do you mean there is an ultimate goal of forcing the population of the United States to engage in homosexual behavior, or just a goal of forcing us to accept it?

Appalachian Trail: meet Five-Twenty Kilovolt Transmission Tower

I submitted these comments at http://parkplanning.nps.gov/projectHome.cfm?projectID=25147

The related document with alternatives to consider is: Preliminary Alternatives Newsletter - July 2010

Below are my comments:

For some reason, probably related to financial reasons, the applicant wants to run a 520 KV line through some National Park Service Units. They can go around, but prefer to widen their existing right-of-way across three national park units and turn the protected lands into construction zones.

I prefer alternative 7 as it moves the line farthest from public lands, buffering the parks from harm done by a profit-motivated business interest. My next choice is alternative 4. I am strongly opposed to the applicant's preferred route proposed in Alternative 2 for the following reasons:

1. The new lines are double the height of the current structures and will infringe on the increasingly rare wilderness experience our National Parks offer.

2. Structures are a major cause of mortality among wildlife like birds and bats. Why build bigger structures on land that's supposed to help, not hinder, wildlife conservation?

3. The power company says their preferred route is critical. I submit it is critical to their profit margin. It's apparent their motive is to connect the low-cost coal resources of the Appalachians to the power-hungry, rather than invest in a distributed grid powered by locally produced renewable energy like wind, solar, hydro, biomass, and geothermal. Their unwillingness to invest in these more sustainable technologies should not come at the cost of public lands.

4. The power company says delay on this project puts Americans at risk of blackouts and brownouts. But from a security perspective, what's the sense of creating a centralized grid that's vulnerable to sabotage?

Thank you for considering my comments. I look forward to enjoying Northeastern U.S. National Park Service units free of the blemishes of large, unnecessary technological structures.

Sincerely,

Tanner Jessel
