MY TESTIMONY at SENATE HEARING

This is the three minutes that make Senator Carpenter so uncomfortable:

Teno Groppi Oshkosh, WI
Wisconsin Marriage Defenders

Many homosexual advocates say all they want is to allow people who love each other to be able to marry - and who could be against that?

They claim they’re not in favor of some of the more frightening things we’re concerned that this will lead to, like polygamy, incest, or pedophilia, but a few things put the lie to that claim.

First, if loving people should be able to marry, what if a brother and sister wanted to marry? How about a brother and a brother? Or cousins? A father and a daughter? What if a dozen people all wanted to marry each other? Homosexuals want to support marriage allowance exceptions for themselves, but not for all these other situations. Why, the intolerant bigots! Those hypocrites!

Worse yet, the “Gay Rights Platform”, which was proposed by over 85 “gay” rights groups, and read into the Congressional Record (if anything is the official position of gay rights advocates, this is it), wants to do away with laws against prostitution, laws against incest, and even laws against adult-CHILD sex. They will NOT stop at just homosexual marriage, they’ve admitted they want prostitution, incest, pedophilia, and other perversions to follow. If we spank a kid they call it child abuse, but they want to legalize sex with children and promote it as normal.

Homosexuals say they simply want equal rights. They HAVE equal rights. They have the same rights as the rest of us, free speech, religious liberty, the right to bear arms, the right to a speedy trial, and all the rest, including the right to marry someone of the opposite sex. They’re not seeking equal rights, they’re after special privileges.

They don’t simply want the right to practice their lifestyle. If they did, it would never become a public issue, because most of us avoid contact with that lifestyle. The only way their sexuality becomes an issue is when they try to shove it down our throats and force us to accept it. If we don’t stand against homosexual “marriage” now, we WILL be battling against prostitution, incest, and pedophilia next.

Congressmen, when you vote on AJR67/SJR53, remember, whether you want to be or not, you are voting on whether to open the doors not only to homosexual “marriage”, but to incest, prostitution, and child-sex, according to the Gay Rights Platform itself. Don’t support these perversions. Allow these bills to be voted on by the citizens of Wisconsin.

Thank you.
