Ranting is love

I'm getting pretty sick of all the variations on the rainbow "this is love" banners. The original message means a lot to me, is a cause I will take direct action to support, and if you know me, it takes a LOT to inspire me to activism. I think that making anything and everything into a rainbow banner cheapens the original, dulling the call for equal marriage.

So rar.

Agreed. Though, strangely enough, the "Love is irrational" doesn't bother me much at all. Maybe its because there the focus is still the rainbow message instead of the actors / politics / whatever.

I haven't seen the "Love is irrational" banner, but I can definitely agree with the statement in a general sense... regardless of any connection to gay rights.
