... to bring you a pertinent point.
D.L. Hughley's comments on Comic Relief 2006 about comparing gay rights to the civil rights struggles of African Americans have been in the news a lot, and all over the blogs.
I actually see it from his point of view, even if I don't necessarily agree with him. If ever I got the chance to sit down and have a drink with him (which I'd love to, since I j'adore his show and I j'adore him in it), I would ask him to consider the arguments put forth by Leonard Pitts, Jr. (one of my favorite columnists), and Mrs. Coretta Scott King (one of my favorite wives of civil rights martyrs).
Alas, with the readers of my own little blogtastrophy I'm preaching to the choir. And reasoned discourse isn't really in fashion these days.
So, there you have it. Just my opinion. Let the fun continue.
