''Whites can hide their sexual preferences and still get all of the rights that society has to offer. I can't hide my blackness and get the rights that I'm due, so to say that this is a civil rights issue upsets me to no end.''

Another gem from Emmett Burns. 

News flash - if you have to hide something major in order to get it fair treatment under the law, you're not exactly getting all the rights that society has to offer.

What about the religious? I'm pretty sure they had some civil rights denied, maybe they could've just hidden their religions and everything would've been ok. In Germany the Jews weren't allowed to marry Germans, they probably should've just faked it and maybe they wouldn't have been murdered. /sarcasm.
