Dem Candiates to Debate Gay Issues on Live TV

I think Capt Jack is speaking in more general terms. They're issues for all of us because they reflect society's willingness to treat different categories of people differently. Are there really issues that only affect particular minority groups? The right to marry the adult of one's choosing, regardless of gender, race, or sexual orientation doesn't potentially affect everyone? The right to be considered for employment based on one's objective qualifications and not subjective biases doesn't potentially affect everyone? The right to justice applied blindly and without regard to race, sexual orientation, income, or political affiliation doesn't potentially affect everyone?
