How the hell is a foreign gay person supposed to move to the U.S.?

[MalibuChloe]

So let me get this straight - a person can move to the U.S. if they marry someone they don't love, but they can't move here to be with their life partner they actually love if that person is the same sex.

WHAT A BLATANTLY HOMOPHOBIC POLICY!!!

1. My question was going to be, "Why would they want to?" But you

answered me.

2. We don't want all them gay men coming over here and

reproducing now do we? (Sorry, thought I was pat Robertson for a moment. Happens when my blood sugar drops and I get hit hard on the head at the same time).

3. They´re worried that gay couples will have gay children.

I know. Don´t forget that today´s ruling aristocracy came from an incestuous blood line dating back to "The King and I." And that King actually wanted to give America male elephants so that one day America would be covered in...elephant dung. shIt happens.

And if you think that´s odd, wait till you hear their story of how the universe was created in...SIX DAYS!

4. Not just gay.

My nephew who has one of the distrophic diseases and is in a wheelchair is not permitted to VISIT the US. The rationale is that he'll get here, take advantage of the American medical system and leave citizens to pay the bill.

Without ever taking a look at what the Dutch health care system provides him. (Full medical, wheelchairs, lift equipped van for transport, modified his parent's house with a chair lift up the stairs and a body lift/transport system to get him from his bedroom to the bathroom and into the tub without lifting, a home helper 4 days a week and vacations every year to other countries..in Europe only, of course)

6. Take advantage of the US healthcare system????

You mean they stop insurance company and pharmaceutical executives from entering the USA?

Or maybe they meant to say "don't want noncitizens to experience first hand how miserable our system is for the uninsured"?

7. They just want poor people who will reproduce like bunnies. n/t

8. Actually. . .sham marriages are not sufficient. . .

to move here.
