Americans Vastly Overestimate Size of LGBT Population

[BillB]

"Americans seem to have absolutely no idea just how many lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people are out there.

In fact, they think that 23 percent of Americans, or almost one in four, are LGBT, a Gallup survey released Thursday revealed. That's way off: The polling organization most recently found that less than 4 percent self-identify that way..."

I keep wondering how a group of 4 pecent of the population has the media groveling at their feet.
How does this small group of perverts wreck hundred year old institutions like the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts?
How do they have the power to tear up the centuries old institution of marriage?

Could the albino lobby do these things? I don't think so.
How about a league of hair-lips? No.

I don't have any answers.

What they lack in numbers, they make up in volume.

I had a high school teacher tell me last week, that it is the "IN" thing to now say you are gay or bi ..for teenagers ..

I'm sure it is, but how did that happen and why?

[ralph]

well , they do seem to be big at least in their influence and I don't know why that happens .

I don't either.
Who taught our kids that it is "cool" to be a sexual pervert?
They didn't make that up out of thin air.

I think that its school and anti discrimination thinking being pounded into kids heads in schools . He11 as example , if I as an adult tell younger people that I won't associate with a SPECIFIC group of people then I may be told that I discriminate , which is true but nothing to be ashamed of . I just discriminate in choosing the people that I want to avoid or spend my time with . I say that school is the big problem . Heck , a school does a liberal program , puts ideas in a kids head and even if its abandoned at a later date the damage has still been done . Plus both parents working to make a living which I guess is pretty normal nowadays and the kids are in the hands of schools and caretakers .

I think the above might not really apply to your question Bill but I still think that it is schools that push inclusion of homosexuality and everything else that is destructive to TRADITIONAL America . I mean school kids nowadays are exposed to kids with 2 mommie , daddies , transgenders and ever other different life style . Cross dressing , homosexual , transgender school teachers are probably in school class rooms and administrations and the admins and teachers are teams as they run the schools .

[BillB]

Next question:
Why are the schools focusing on that kind of garbage?
There are a lot more beneficial things they can concentrate on.
When is the last time you saw a high school student who was able to make change?
I worked in a couple of retail stores after school. We not only had to be able to make change, we had to count it back to the customer. When's the last time you saw that?

Ralph, it didn't matter what my kids were taught at school. They were taught "right" at home well before that, and that home education has never stopped.

[ralph]

I think , might sound far fetched but I think that the dumbing down that you mention is to lessen the intelligence or ability divide between young and dumb Americans entering the workforce and the imported / immigrants that will be entering the workforce . Making them all equal BILL !!

[ralph]

lots of influence from school to kids that may not be as lucky or blessed as your kids JW . Schools are building a MAJORITY of sheeple , imo !

[ralph]

making them all equal with low ability makes them ready to accept low wages or stay in their parents basements [ extra thought] !!

[ralph]

after all , education in mexico is said to be terrible I think , many of the imported can't even speak Spanish properly . In the case of properly educated importeds from asia or the middle east or mexico the properly educated will just get the better jobs and will be the bosses of the ill educated young Americans .
