As the crazy Palestinian guy in Munich says, "Home is Everything."
What self-determination, what safety, what power can a people really have without their own nation?
Oppressed African Americans were returned to Africa and given the nation of Liberia, and it turned out great. They have a peaceful, prosperous homeland, and it solved the problem of race in America.
Similarly, once the Jews were given Israel, all of their problems were almost immediately solved. The same is true of the Croats, the Irish, the Navajo, and Neo Art's seven armed bastard love child he had with his sister. All of these ethnic problems, seemingly intractable, perenially bloody, all solved by giving the people who a nation of their own. A home.
So, here is what I propose: We give the gays Texas. The people already there can go to refugee camps in the east. I'm sure they'll be fine with it. Then, the gays can fight a six day war against Kentucky, Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia, seize the Appalachian Heights, and it will all be over. Peace.
You can also use this thread to nominate leaders for this new nation, as I have:
Prime Minister: Tim Gunn Minister of the Armed Forces: Perry Watkins Chief Judge: Neo Art after a few Cosmopolitans.
And, more importantly, if there were no abortions, what would all the Atheists eat? Can't collectivise for Satan on an empty stomach.~GnL

SA, you do win points for this reason. I did lol, but I'd rather lol in F7.
As for the authentic political commentary... Are you implying that Neo's diaper babies are gay?

Problem is, unlike Israel, the native population ain't gonna reproduce.

We've done it with race, why not sexuality?
Are the Jews segregated in Israel?
Segregation is compulsory and denies access to some. I'm not saying gays would be rounded up and put in Texas. (Although the straights currently in Texas will have to be rounded up and moved. But they're straight. There are lots of places for straights.)
I'm saying they would have their own sovereign homeland in Texas, their own government, and really, really stylish army. Peddle boats, probably.

I think that's the point, really.
As for fighting fire with fire...
Giving gays Texas would be a big mistake. You see, gays hate freedom, and Texas is full of it. They'd suffocate and shrivel in that environment. Not only that, but seeing how gay people are only gay because of an inability to critically think, their state would soon be rife with indecision and collapsing infrastructure. They'd be heavily dependent on foreign AIDS...erm, aide.
Plus, everyone knows gays are all limp-wristed pacifists. There's no way they'd be able to take over those states in war; they probably don't even know how to use guns, though I imagine they'd be experts in the pincer movement and attacks from the rear.

Uhm, we aren't oppressed everywhere, you know. Why start a new nation, when I can just live where I am already treated fairly by the government? "Yes, we can - move to Canada/The Netherlands/Sweden/and so on..."

Oh, you seem to think gay people are sterile. I guess they didn't teach you about the birds and the bees well enough... and, straight people breed enough gay babies as it is.

Their initial population will be drawn from around the world, and in a generation, there will be cloning technology.
Even if they just declare a "Right of Return" to gays around the world, they'll be able to survive in immigration alone.
Yeah, but how are they gonna screen out the Anne Heches and their male counterparts?

I thought they already had a homeland, one called "California".

Because then they'll want you to dance for them and be their minstrel, even when you thought they were your friends.
On the other hand, with your own nation, you'll get a seat at the UN.
