You think there should be laws about what goes on in people's bedrooms, who should be allowed to love whom. And then you think people are simultaneously allowed "special protections".

If or if not Adams is guilty of the accusations has little to do with his sexual orientation. Straight males in positions of power engage in this kind of alleged behavior ALL THE TIME. The accusations against Adam's are far less than the accusations against straight males like Harvey Weinstein or Bill O'Reilly. 

You don't scoff and think "Of course Bill O'Reilly isn't in prison. He's receives special protection for being a rich straight white male." That statement is actually true, which is the irony. Sam Adams, if guilty, likely doesn't have 25 million dollars to silence his accusers. 

Look up doublethink. You could be it's poster child.
