O'Leary says she doesn't personally know any same-sex parents or their children

Nothing like talking out of your ass.

Why do ppl think they have the right to express "views" on things such as gay marriages or same sex families when they have no idea what they're talking about?As the article states O'Leary doesn't know any such ppl and still feels she's a professional about the topic.Makes me sick and sad for ppl like that
