Well, Al, I have to agree with you there. While I understand the spirit of the "call out" (sorry, couldn't help myself) I do not think that it is a well thought out plan. I feel the same way about the "pink christmas" thread (those crazy Danes ;).
My only issue was with the way the referrals to homosexuals seemed to spiral out of control. It seemed like on guy would say something "kind of" inappropriate, and the next would take down a notch, and so on until it got to the "disgusting deviant" level. I decided a long time ago that letting shit like that slide (whether its persuasion, race, whatever) is not the way to be a man.
I also agree with you on the number issue. I have always found the 10% claimed by lots of groups to be "optimistic". That said, I think that you might be surprised at how much acceptance the movement is accruing. Unfortunately, sometimes the gay pride parades (although I love to watch them!) also tend to scare a lot of people whom might otherwise be a bit more tolerant. Oh, well, thank goodness for SOME activist judges ;)
