Gays have the right to exist as persons without persecution. That's a given. Some people have stated homosexuality is either a lifestyle choice or a biological abnormality, and both may be dead on, or totally wrong. Its not the why that is important, but the person themselves. They have the right to be homosexual. Where the why matters is in how far we as society have to accomodate them.
However, people like T@T have the right to be opposed to homosexuality and deem it abnormal, so long as his rights do not interfere with the rights of homosexuals. People are quick to attack him, but he has never actually crossed the line from disapproval to hatemongering. He's simply saying he believes it to be abnormal. That's his right.
Tolerance and peacefulness are required, but people are not required to like it and accept that dogma as sancrosanct.
