Default Nine-year-old boy organizes gay rights rally in Colorado

"Everybody is different in a good way," he told reporters, saying he believed if two people love each other, that is the only issue to consider.
:tsktsk:

This poor boy has clearly been the subject of horrific liberal indoctrination! Where else would he have gotten the idea that homosexuals are normal people who are of value just like the rest of us, rather than being despicable sinners?

Apart from the apparent hypocrisy, I like how some people can't even fathom a nine year old forming his own opinions.

He'll probably be an interior decorator by the time he's 11.

Denver - The Latest Word - Baseball, soccer, gay-marriage rally: one Denver nine-year-old's Saturday schedule

Just for more info... According to this, the boy reads at a high school level, which if it's even halfway true, doesn't make anything he's doing seem too precocious to me (as others have claimed in comments).

Also, as I said before :squee: Too cute.

But they probably totally support those little kid "preachers" talking about whores and such. YouTube Samuel Boutwell for example

I saw an interview with one, and the interviewer is all "Do you even know what whore means" and little angel answers "A whore is a woman who lies with a man who ain't her husband"

Precious tyke.

A prostitute most likely is a whore (could be an abomination instead), but a whore is not necessarily a prostitute.

Until he reads at a PhD level, he's not smart enough to start his own political movements.

We need to be teaching our kids to pronounce it "hoo-er", though, because that's even funnier.

Not to mention those families who let their pre-teens "choose" to lie down in the street to block traffic in front of abortion clinics.

How do you know?

It says he was prompted to consider the issue by his neighbors being unable to marry, and that bothered him. It also says he's a very smart kid. So, a bright youngster perceived underlying bigotry and chose to act on it. That is admirable.
