Miss California is right

"Since when did denying what you think simply to appease others to get what you want become a celebrated virtue? Homosexual activists constantly promote tolerance and 'being true to yourself' – except when you oppose their views. That is hypocrisy, and it has some dangerous ramifications.

"The fact is that in a few years, Miss California's words could not only cost her a beauty pageant title but could place her behind bars. Congress is again considering a bill to make it a federal 'hate crime' to commit certain acts because of the victim's 'gender identity' or 'sexual orientation.' Although Democrats have tried to assure the public that mere speech would not be impinged under such 'thought crimes,' just last week on April 23, Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee, D-Texas, let it slip that the 'hate crimes' bill was designed to 'protect those potential victims who may be the recipients of hateful words or hateful acts.'

"At the same time, Perez Hilton's venomous response to Miss California's statement has really done us a favor: It has shown us that liberals and homosexual activists will not rest until America accepts their redefinition of marriage as the next step in our cultural 'evolution.' It has also emphasized their harbored belief that any who refuse to toe that politically correct line deserve hatred, discrimination and perhaps prison.

"Liberal judges and radical homosexuals alike want everybody else to think and do as they say, even as they call 'evil good, and good evil' (Isaiah 5:20). They protect freedom of expression for their opinions only, and they are prepared to bully, judge or jail any dissenters.

"If you are not yet concerned, then you are not paying attention."
