You>> To add to dabateman's point, there are too many parents out there that are so abjectly prejudiced against gays that they will kick a gay child out of the house when they find out.
Gee.
Doesn't sound like I claimed they were "all kicked out of their homes by parents who rejected their homosexual behavior"...
"Too many" is nowhere near saying "all"...
Moving on.

Numerous research studies conducted over the past decade find that gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (GLBT) youth make up 25-40% of the homeless youth population in NYC and other large cities. One study found half of 432 homeless youth surveyed identified as gay, lesbian, or bisexual (Clatts, et al., 1996).
Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Youth
Does the significance of that sink in at all to you?
This is very real.
And this is JUST counting the homeless.

Wow. I never even mentioned ANY reason for why they were kicked out there...
Were you trying to prove yourself wrong Stinger?

Flat out lie.
Like I said earlier, if you had actually READ my posts you would have seen that I have CONTRADICTED such a view.
Let me say that again. I have CONTRADICTED the belief you want to claim I have...

ROFLMAO!
You keep throwing that accusation out there when you are losing.
This has NOTHING to do with "style over substance".
You FALSELY CLAIMED I have put forth a position that I have not.
That's "strawman", and pointing out strawman is ENTIRELY relevant to the issue.
Now, I have no doubt that you now want to tuck your tail between your legs and run off cause I am not going to play your stupid reindeer games.
It's kind of tough for you to argue against a strawman when people repeatedly point out that it's a strawman, eh...
