Slightly different issue than this. This is nowhere near the same kind of issue as the civil rights.
Because you can't always label a homosexual by looking at them? How is it different? Because you think gay is a choice?

Because the two are not comparable. At all.
That fact won't prevent silly comparisons. People make silly comparisons all the time. e.g., Facts didn't prevent Kanye West from comparing dangers of his stagecraft including multiple wardrobe changes, and chance of twisting an ankle to the dangers of soldiers at war. Pretty much the same type thing in this instance.

Because people aren't being refused service and signs aren't in front of establishments saying "No figs allowed". Police officers aren't arresting them for sitting in restaurants or spraying them down with water hoses in the streets. Their leaders aren't being murdered while their killers get off in court.
Do I need to continue? It's nowhere near the same issue as blacks faced. They can't get a marriage license. That's it.
It's insulting to the black community and it's leaders to compare the two.
