    And race had nothing to do with it?
    Sure, but the argument was whether one could be separate but equal. The Civil Rights Act didn't end racism. After it was passed people could still be racist, however they could no longer discriminate.

    They could no longer discriminate on the basis of race. Clearly the case was about racism. But it's all semantics anyway.

    For me it's like saying the Civil War was fought over slavery. Which is incorrect, it was fought over state's rights, on of which happened to be the owning of slaves.

    It was arguably fought over differences of economic systems.

    Well yes and no. Imo this is more about fighting codified racism. One can't eradicate racism through law, but one can fight the legal discrimination it causes.

    Maybe we should ask Apu.

    While I must admit that was both very cool and hilarious, I find it a pity you're not debating this.

    There are gays that are against gays adopting but ohhh no let's be really loud when we discuss this because "I'm right and you're wrong, you ignorant Moslem caveman" :howler: Very similar strategy to ugly naked feminist that like to get in your face on the streets except here you're behind a keyboard.

    I'd say comparing homosexuality to pedophilia and beastiality is what counts as trolling imo. And it's certainly not smart.
    typical herd mentality answer, i dont think anyone compared homosexuality to anything, the question is who says which fringe sexual activity is alright and which is not, and it's obviously the group with the most pull, it has nothing to do with morals, look up pedophile information exchange

    It's also hard to find two consenting adults in peadophilia, beastiality, and necrophilia. I would say fetishism has some pretty fringe stuff, but no one gives them any problems.

    both are kinda legal in denmark shout out to @Völler also a person can agree to have their body used for sex after their death. Not to mention that alcohol makes people sleep with all kinds of animals :p
