[Vision2020] Question, V-Peeps . . .

Wrong, Gary -- it's only people like you who opt to distort things.  That
survey captures ONLY those who *publicly* identify as LGBT:
http://www.gallup.com/poll/158066/special-report-adults-identify-lgbt.aspx

"As a group still subject to social stigma, many of those who identify as
lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender may not be forthcoming about this
identity when asked about it in a survey. Therefore, it's likely that some
Americans in what is commonly referred to as "the closet" would not be
included in the estimates derived from the Gallup interviews. Thus, the 3.4%
estimate can best be represented as adult Americans who publicly identify
themselves as part of the LGBT community when asked in a survey context."

You know, kind of like inaccurate survey results about masturbation . . . or
survey results that report the average size of an unaroused male penis.
Sucks to be you.  Or all those surveys that proved . . . PROVED I tell you .
. . that marijuana use inevitably lead to harder drug use.

Besides, does it matter whether it's 10%, 5%, 1%, or 0.1% of Americans whose
are denied equal protection of the Constitutional?  Not to me, and it better
not to someone like you who worships at the 2A alter.  While statistics show
that that the number of guns owned per individual has increased (due, IMO,
to clear mental illness in the form of paranoia), the percentage of
households that own guns has fallen below a majority (I think the 34% +/- 3%
stat is likely pretty accurate).  If you don't care that 10% of Americans
are denied equal protection, you'd better hope the rest of us don't share
your rank hypocrisy and blatant disregard of the entire Constitution.
