Um, if you're saying the fight for racial equality has been won I'd love to move to the dream world you're living in.
Besides, you're comparing apples to oranges; gays are facing a completley different kind of fight. The people who seek to oppress equal rights for gays have their reasons based in religion, which is supposed to be unequivocally kept out of our government. I don't know of the bible/their churches saying anything about hating people of different colors, but they're openly taught to hate homosexuals which then affects how they vote. It's a shame this country has such puritanical origins still affecting us today.
