His comments didn't bother me in the least. They were not said mean spiritedly. They were just his opinion, and he is entitled to them. I heard a followup interview where he said that English was his second language, and he doesn't always covey the correct meaning. He basically, stood by his not wanting gays as an example for kids. However, he explained that when he said gays were more pervert , he meant to say more openly affectionate in public. apparently he sees more openly gay, touchy, feely, cuddling and kissing in public than str8 people. That's just his opinion and he is entitled to it.
