First of all, who cares what the "majority of Americans" think about marriage equality? It's a civil rights issue that should not be subject to the whims of popular opinion. Do you think the majority of Americans were in favor of civil rights and interracial marriage back in the sixties? Do you think the majority of Americans were in favor of abolishing slavery in the early 1800's?
Secondly, this is just a quick list of how Miss Prejean offends me:
1. Her ignorant views on marriage equality/gays, obviously.
2. She is a terrible role model and an unfortunate stereotype of weak women that should have gone extinct decades ago. She is all veneer- fake tan, fake hair, fake boobs, tarted up like a trashy whore- and she has absolutely
zero substance or any apparent brainpower whatsoever. Stupid people offend me in general. But stupid people who try to overcompensate by playing up the physical attributes is just beyond tragic to me.
3. Her hypocrisy of being such a devoutly religious person with "family values," yet being more than willing to parade around half naked on stage (and fully naked in pictures). What is that old saying about people who live in glass houses?
4. She is trying to milk her 15 minutes of fame by spewing even more hatred- a media whore if there ever was one.
etc...
