Catholic League President Bill Donohue saw something in the news this week that tweaked him a little, and in response he ended up writing something rather odd: Being gay is not only a bonus for humans these days, it is a definite plus for dogs as well.
-snip-
Comparing the dogs now-avoided fate to the plight of terminally ill patients in Washington state, he wrote that disabled and terminally ill people are soon likely to be on the euthanasia list even as this Tennessee animal shelter has no stomach for putting dogs down on the basis of sexual orientation.
It must be said, though, that the shelter is not exactly inclusive in its policies, he went on. To wit: Had poor Elton not been identified as a homosexual, his heterosexuality would not have been enough to save his hide.
The moral of the story is: Being gay is not only a bonus for humans these days, it is a definite plus for dogs as well, Donohue concluded. As for straights, the lonely and the disabled, thats another story altogether.

(40,416 posts)Many things he says have that element to them.
He is one weird bird.
I just don't know what else to say about him.

(2,286 posts)Gays get preferential treatment and all the perks while heterosexuals are penalized.
He is such a warped fuck. If being gay was such an amazing thing that came with all of these perks, why do people, lie about it? Why do people commit suicide over it? It's not like coming out is equal to winning the lottery, especially thanks to assholes like this.
And a gay dog? Dogs hump everything. The dog was NOT gay.

But Donohue is such a scum bag, he will ignore that for an excuse to bash.

(100,097 posts)That refuses to change with the times and thinks it's employees are above the law.
Really if he cared so much about families like he claims to why isn't he demanding Pope Ratz hold his priests accountable for child abuse???
