Straight Talk (Pun Intended)

Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey
I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail.

This is a cartoon that is gut wrenching because it is so terrible true. What right do we have to judge and cause this type of pain to be felt by one of our fellow beings? Or try to make someone ashamed of what he/she feels for another being. The gift of love, real, true deep caring, is the most precious gift one can give another human. Life is a wondrous gift from God who loves all of us without regard of one's sexual orientation. Who has the right to presume to say one way is right and another way is wrong? God created heterosexuals and homosexuals equally and it is no one's business except the individual's as to their orientation. I am so tired of all the self righteous PC bigots on both the right and left who are smugly judging of others, most especially in judging those who are willing to bravely fight and die for our freedom. When will we stop hounding each other and accept each of us for who we really are?
Beautifully expressed, Lee, and so true!
