Gay political groups argue that if homosexual behavior occurs in animals, it's natural, and therefore should be embraced.
But think about it: Rats and hamsters eat their young. Black Widow spiders kill their mates. Do we consider those things natural behavior for humans, too?
We shouldn't pick and choose animal behaviors to back political causes. And we shouldn't model human laws after behavior found in the zoo.
Fucking idiots and their straw men!
Gay political groups aren't saying that "we should embrace animal behavior because it's natural." The issue is that right-wing religious people are saying that homosexual behavior is

Animals don't wear clothes. I think it would be funny to enforce nudism on anybody who invokes animals as an example on either side of any given debate.

Animals don't wear clothes.
That's not always their fault. Hippos would wear pants if given the opportunity.
As would, obviously, monkeys.

Well, that goes without saying.
Except for when it doesn't, like now.
I am watching RoboCop III, because there is jack else on 500 channels and one of my last few brain cells is on vacation.
Everyone in it is actually no kidding dead today or was recently axed off a TV show. RoboCop III was made in 1993. Thirteen years is not really a long time.
I was going to say something clever about that, but my other brain cell went on break.
Monkeys.
Have you guys listened to Tim's Podcast yet? OMG, he
hates Vincent! It's great.
I don't believe I've ever head him be so negative about a designer so early in the process.
