As a right winger, I take umbrage to the idea that we as a class of people are idiots. Most of my friends and personal associates are conservative Republicans. When it comes to conduct, I am more straight-laced than virtually everyone. When it comes to how others lead there lives, I don't care unless you are harming someone. Virtually everyone I deal with on the right hand side of the political aisle is pretty similar to me. On the other hand, it looks like the top of my party is far more dogmatic than I am.

As you know, I grew up where Jamie Rodemeyer lived; he committed suicide because of the gay bashing he received online. I find the intolerance to be impossible to stomach because of the discrimination (racial and religious in my case) that I encountered as a child. I find it incomprehensible that Leelah's parents could not at least learn to treat their daughter nee son like a human being - regardless of gender - and then do what they could to have her learn to survive. They failed as parents. Period.

Point of fact: God Created her as a female identity in a male body. Maybe her parents should have dwelt on that possibility  and learnt how to see God's Wisdom and Goodness in choosing her to be this way. God did not make a mistake (probably the only thing they said that was denotively correct); they made the mistake by not learning what God Tried to teach them.
