What, suddenly everyone can decieve and cover up so long as they are doing it under quote: "good intentions"? Would that apply to heterosexual conservatives as well?
Judges do take into account intentions and character when sentencing. In fact other intent helps decide what crime people are charged with. Intentions are very important.

For someone complaining about people using the homophobe card you sure do seem keen to use it yourself. Yes, it does apply to heterosexual conservatives as well! I resent this constant attempt to portray my argument as "He is gay so it is ok", honestly that is out of line.

No one can deceive and cover up and then say it's ok. But seriously there is a difference between someone doing it because they want to commit fraud and someone doing it because they are insecure about an aspect of their personal life. It's still wrong but it is far more understandable.
