Gay people are a minority and will always be one but that doesn't mean there should be no representation of them in various medias...
Why must it be presented as normal in KIDS' movies?
Homosexuality isn't, never has been, never will be "normal" no matter how many LGBTQIA [add new letters] advocates stomp their feet, cry and wail and deliberately misuse the "do not judge" bible verse* to silence truth-tellers.

* Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Jesus did not say "Do not judge EVER."

Oh that's actually cool. I'm not against gay characters being written in TV shows or movies. Especially if it's a relatable story like struggling with one's identity and such. Good for Trini. That pocket full of sunshine yellow ranger!

Children should learn that gay people are just people like everyone else and they should know not to attack them for their sexuality. You should also know that children can identify as gay, just like they can identify as straight. Kids get little crushes all the time and the gay kids will too as well as everyone else.

To me this debate kind of falls under the category of political correctness. Science tells us there is basically no difference between a child who grows up with gay parents, and one that doesn't.

I think people tell themselves it's about their "faith" but it's really not. It's about you, and the social constructs that envelop you. A great many things are not normal, so why pick this type of crusade? Surely there are better battles to fight in the name of Christ

Just came by to say that the new ranger movie isnt really aimed at kids. More so the adults that watched the series as kids.
Not sayin there isnt a huge agenda push of all kinds at kids anymore. Id say its hard to be a parent right now. Too much stuff to monitor lol

Gay people are definitely the minority but that's exactly the point. They're the minority yet there is a disproportionate amount of representation they receive in the entertainment world. In every TV show and many movies, there's now always a gay couple or two which isn't a factual representation of the demographics of the Western world at all. Not by any accurate measures.

Food for thought.

They went decades without having gay characters on screen, it's fairly common now-a-days and you guys lose your heads. Good grief.

That's because people weren't as brainwashed to today's nonsense as much as we are now. If they tried what they do now in the past they would have all been shut down real quick. But their years of slow programming and brainwashing have made the West's population docile and mentally weak hence why they can get away with a lot of the baloney they present us with.

I would argue that people were more brainwashed back then and certainly slaves to tradition.

If by tradition you mean a child being raised by both a mother and father and the rest of the extended family, a family's dollar being able to get them further in life, better quality education, and etc. than I would love to be brainwashed by tradition.

Strong families are what lead to prosperity not divorced Lady Gaga consuming fans.

I find it highly irrelevant and fruitless to discuss. If one homosexual poses a problem, similar to Elsa from frozen possibly having a same sex relationship, don't spend your money for that type of entertainment.

On another note I find it even more irrelevant as the blue ranger from the 90's was a full blown closet homosexual.

I see the issue with it becoming more acceptable but this is a secular company in a secular nation.

By tradition I mean getting away with brutalizing your wife after your third martini.
By tradition I mean lynchings.
By tradition I mean cops busting up and beating up people at gay social clubs

Those things have nothing to do with traditional family values. Humans do stupid things and they will always do stupid things. Watch them fallacies ;)
