This is some of what Paladino has said, and all of it is offensive.
If you agree that pro-gay legislation should be vetoed, as Paladino has vowed to do if elected, then you are as anti-gay and homophobic as Paladino is.
I quote:
Paladino told the Jewish leaders in Brooklyn that he didn't march in "the gay parade this year -- the gay pride parade," while Cuomo did.
"That's not the example we should be showing our children, and certainly not in our schools" he said.
"And don't misquote me as wanting to hurt homosexual people in any way. That would be a dastardly lie. My approach is live and let live," he said.
"I just think my children and your children would be much better off and much more successful getting married and raising a family, and I don't want them brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally valid and successful option," he said. "It isn't."
Paladino vowed that as governor he would veto any bill legalizing gay marriage or civil unions.

Good Evening Tom,You, nor anyone else that I have seen you post articles from, has identified what specifically it is that you, (or they) find offensive that Mr. Paladino purportedly said. Mr. Paladino.Mr. Paladino said emphatically that he believed in equal rights for all individuals, but he doesn't think young children should be exposed to homosexual promiscuity, such as Gay Day Parades.I've seen nothing that could even be remotely construed as homophobic, and for the most part, I agree with Mr. Paladino! Young children should not be exposed to ANY adult sexual promiscuity, and especially a bunch of Gays parading around in assless chaps, boas, or dressed up like a nekkid Statute of Liberty!

In other words, Paladino said that it is bad. He is unfit to be Governor.

- Where did he say it was bad? The dispusting aspect was men gyrating into each other which I'm sure if heterosexuals were doing the same thing would be disgusting and inappropriate to expose to children. What I get from your responses is a hpyer-sensitivity and a feeling of being singled out.

- Wrong.
- Teaching children that homosexuals are bad and pride parades are "disgusting"
- is not reasonable parenting. Far from it.

- Of course Paladino stands by his hate filled gibberish! And of course his attitude is a distraction! And the next victim of violence because he/she is suspected to be gay should be credited to THIS millionaire out of touch eletist creep. Anderson Cooper did an awesome report Sunday on the fact that HATE SPEECH incites violence, bullying, harassment, assaults, and suicides. Apparently Paladino doesn't care. He is blinded by his own prejudice.

- Again, Democrats are not Marxists, Sucialists, or Communists. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat again.
- And you are wrong again. Paladino said horrible, homophobic, disgusting hateful things,
- and he sent out pornographic mysogynist and racist emails. This angry hypocrytical jerk is unfit to be Governor of New York.
- Vote for Andrew Cuomo!

- Just as curious, how did (purportedly "windbag bigot") Republican Gubenatorial Candidate Paladino "contribute to an atmosphere anti-gay prejudice"?
- More hate, smear, nastiness from the far left, when Paladino said nothing of the sort, made no derogatory comments, and said nothing of the kind.
- Again, far left hate, smear and a Marxist agenda, perpetrated by Tom.
- I heard Paladino's comments. Far from anthing described by the hateful left.
