They're never ending.

Over at the Memphis Commercial Appeal, we have this prime example.

    Commissioner Henri Brooks, before voting for the ordinance, told gay rights supporters to disentangle their cause from anything related to black people and their civil rights movement.

    She would be disloyal to the shoulders upon which she stands if she didn't insist that the issues be decoupled, she said.

This after a number of Black Baptist ministers thundered against giving equal rights regarding employment to Gays and Trans people.
