There are so many reasons this is off but here's one: I can't look at every gay person and know they are gay. You can look at black people and tell they are black.

This is impotent.
Plus, you avoid what I said about being able to look at someone and tell if they are gay - it is impossible to look at every gay person and say "I know that person is gay."
If I were to explain the various social issues surrounding minorities you would shrug it off and make some other generalizations that would just piss me off.
You are not well versed in any black issue so you are not suited to make such claims. If you would like to correct the previous sentence feel free, but until you do so, you have no point AT ALL.
(And please do not goggle "the civil rights movement"😉

No, they can't be gay. It would be "illogical" and therefore un-Vulcan. Did you know though, that Vulcan feces is completely devoid of moisture, similar to an owl pellet.
