The father should spend a little more time getting to know his son. It sounds like the son is a good man. Dad might discover that the chosen lifestyle crap is just that crap.

So many pRicks in TeaxasâŚ
Hope there is a dog.
I donât know if they live in the same district, but would be interesting to see the son run for office against his dad.
This story makes me really sad, especially when I remember stories of tragic endings when parents wouldnât accept their childrenâs sexual identity.
I despise people who just canât evolve on issues like this, who wonât bend, even for their own children.
Horrible people.

Perhaps on his deathbed. I donât see anything happening before then.
âIâm a person who believes in individual liberty and freedom,â Rick Miller said âand I donât discriminate personally.â
But I will personally file a bill taking protections away from people that my associates love to discriminate against.

Another case of âcompassionate conservatismâ I suppose. (wipes tear)

There are some things about religion I donâ't get. The followers are moralistic as in the case of this guy. Yet their holy writ says Adam ân Eve were booted out of the garden while the serpent (the devil) got to stayâŚ
Jesusâ mom was unwed when she became âwith childâ yet the Catholics and many other sects worship her.
Yet the followers, as I said, will cram morality down every throat they can get hold of.

The guy is a retired Navy captain. He probably never had a great relationship with his son in the first place, because he wasnât around.
He puts his religious beliefs above his own son, becauseâŚ
He has no idea whatâs really important in the scheme of things, in the here and now.
Pathetic fool.

That kills me. Odds are, the elder Mr. Miller gets many of his idiotic beliefs about L/Gs from his churchâwhich is legally excused from paying taxes, thus forcing the rest of us to subsidize them.
Mr. Miller is probably fine with that. But gays? Oh, they want âspecial protections.â

âI donât discriminate personallyâ
Yes, you do.
I donât murder. I donât tolerate murder either, which means I donât shrug and say if people want to express their individual freedom through murder, far be it from me to stop them.

"But after someone sent Rick Miller an email calling him a bigot, Beau Miller posted an online message imploring opponents of the bill not to âmatch hate with hate.â "
big¡ot  (bÄgâ˛Ét) n. One who is strongly partial to oneâs own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
I fail to see how the accurate application of the term amounts to hatred.

Precisely my first thought about that comment. Those two days really are all that family is all about.
AndâŚ, Baptist or Episcopal? Unless they were members of some ultra-conservative Episcopal congregation, those two Protestant sects are about as far apart socially as you can get. Maybe it depended more on where dad was stationed and when mom was in control of the household.
