You're falling into their trap, Joe. There are a very few people (in proportion to the total population) who are willing to stage a protest, but Rosie and the Media want you to believe it's the entire region....and it's working. (Why would anyone who lives in a country whose economy is due almost entirely to tourism want to let the world know that they're judgmental about their guests?)

Why is this happening? She's doing it to keep her name and sexuality in the spotlight, and maybe to avoid a "situation"....empathy for her kind if you will. The media is doing it because controversy sells newspapers and makes for better forum conversations.


It's not a phobia or a type of discrimination to find a particular lifestyle disgusting just like it's not illegal or immoral to stand up for what you believe in and even stage a peaceful protest if you feel the need. Rosie can't stop people from protesting so she cries and screams like a baby rather than accepting the fact that there are going to be adverse reactions by the general population to the deviant lifestyles exercised by various minorities be it homosexual behavior, wearing your pants with your under wearing showing, or not speaking English.

You can't be different and not be thought of differently.
Brain, you actually did it!!! Good job!!!! See you can say something right. I agree with you on this one!

I must concur!! Negative attention... Positive attention - it's all the same when you crave that spotlight.

I love the target practice comment, too. lol
