Re: At Super Bowl, Antibullying PSAs Will Go On

To be a Bigot a person needs to have strong, unreasonable beliefs or
to be intolerant of other view points.

To hold the belief that Homosexuality is just plain wrong and yet are
civil towards gays is NOT considered unreasonable by the vast majority
of people on this earth... Therefore to have an anti-gay position is
NOT bigotry. However gays that can not see and understand this are
indeed BIGOTED..
