I hate to be the one to call attention to someone as thoughtful and knowledgeable as David Tyree saying something stupid, but when I run across something like this, it stops me:
"If I have my child at a public school and I'm totally against same-sex or homosexuality, now they have the right to teach my child that this is something normal, or true."
The only problem with Tyree's objection is that homosexuality is normal. It's very normal. It's a human behavior found, to borrow one of the right's favorite generalizations, in "all places, all times." In fact, it's found in more places and times than "traditional" marriage.
And don't ask me to explain the conflation of "normal" with "true." I can't begin to fathom what he means. I doubt he can, either.
