My apologies.
Still don't know the meaning of "heckes", but once you expressed your concern about "booing" I've tried to ask questions, the answers to which might illuminate exactly why and how you think the debators should have responded to "booing".

It was clear in the OP that in your mind some extrordinary drama had occured and I'm just trying to understand what constitutes its basis.

My bad. I thought you would have asked a friend.

Carry on.

Maybe you should find a direct quote of the question and refer to that rather than your interpretation of what the question means or feels like to you.

It sounded like 3 or 4 loud people booing. It's still a controversial topic that violates strongly held traditions with lots of people. I think a gay military wedding, for example, would be maybe a little weird.

Military Wedding Arch of Sabers
A Marine Corps tradition, often adopted by the Air Force, is for the last saber bearer to "tap" the bride with his saber and say, "Welcome to the Marine Corps, Ma'am."

I guess how you have our sex is far more important than what you're willing to die for. But it's not a big surprise given the candidates and the audience. I would like to have heard someone ask the quesiton, "I googled Santorum to get some more information about your political ideas and came across the universal noun, 'santorum'. Is there any connection between you and this noun?"

Kuan, I have an original magnifying glass. What do you need to know?

I have a suspicion those who scream the loudest about this are actually upset about something they can't change about themselves

How about this: Why is it necessary to identify your sexual preference(s)?

OK. That was wrong and I'm sorry. I just could not resist given the comments he has made about gays.

So that your partner can get the benefits that he/she is entitled too? When people start talking about their partners/spouses, should the gay people just lie?

It's impolite to say derogatory things concerning ones sexual preferences. Or to imply unfortunate relations.

Regardless of sexual preference.

Wouldn't we all agree?
