IMO that is just wrong.

Maybe people in general are only concerned about equal rights when it affects them personally.

I am sure others will disagree, but I don't think being gay is a choice that a person makes for themselves. Just like you can't choose what color skin you are born with. Therefore, anyone who supports equal rights for any reason should be outraged with this decision.
