Why do conservatives get angry at gay couples' PDA, but not straight couples?

[Tommy]

I was eating at IHOP last week and these conservative losers forced this lesbian couple to leave the restaurant since they were holding hands. Plenty of straight couples were holding hands, no complaints. God, conservatives are hypocrites.

I'm liberal, and I hate when anyone does the PDA thing. Holding hands is alright, but I don't care if you're gay, straight, bi, tri, or whatever; don't effing make out in public.

How in the world do you eat pancakes(with a side of bacon and eggs)
and still manage to hold hands?
Maybe they were told to leave
because they spilled their food all over the floor??..

While a vast number of conservatives are homophobic, let me ask you this: do you know for sure those who forced the couple out were conservatives? Not all conservatives are homophobic; not all liberals are pro-gay equality. As a gay man, I'm going to say that your assertion that all conservatives are hypocrites is dangerous and actually sets us back as a community. I am a liberal, but I know plenty of liberals who are homophobic and some of my best friends, who are more conservative, are not homophobic. Stereotyping people like this is just as bad as any homophobic slur.

Yea like anyone but other ignorant Libs will actually believe this nonsense. Let me guess you have never seen a Lib be a hypocrite?

I suppose in this little gay-basher fantasy of yours that "those Conservatives" also beat them and forced them to wear gold stars after tattooing serial numbers on their left wrists? Really, if your are going to dabble in divisive non sequitur, at least make it PLAUSIBLE.

Dick Cheney is a conservative, and the person he loves more than anyone else on earth is a lesbian. His daughter.
