Accidental or not?

Absolutely not. But are the gay bashers electing officials who openly promote gay bashing? Have any laws been passed which compel the state to "beat up the faggots"?

Looking at Alex's post above, it doesn't look like that's the case in most Muslim countries as well.

Yes, because the minority of Islamic-ruled countries where homosexuality is punishable by death are known as bastions of democracy where, clearly, their governments represent the will of the people. They're also bastions of freedom of speech and assembly where people who disagree with their ruthless leaders often feel free to demonstrate against them.

Yes, we are. As a nation we elect our leaders and ultimately it's our problem when they fück up. And in the long run, we usually try to make it right.

Glad to know you think the attacks on 9/11 were justified since, by extension, the people in the twin towers are partially responsible for the instability in Afghanistan that our government played a large hand in creating.

If the governed don't like their government, they need to make a new one. It happens all the time. <looks at South America & Africa> They look to me like they're pretty content with the status quo. I'd love to read evidence to the contrary.

I think that's an awfully big leap there GD. Do we blame the Chinese butterfly who caused a hurricane in Florida?
