   Yes, they either 'guilt' people into thinking that way or make it   
   seem like if you're not for something, you're against it, there's   
   no such thing as being in the middle and wanting things to be fair   
   to everyone.

   Yes, I think the closest we could get away with there would be   
   an Embarrassed Straight parade..  Walk of shame...   B)   
   (Without the nudity)
