Bringing Up Gay at Miss USA
Miss North Carolina USA Kristen Dalton was crowned Miss USA 2009 on Sunday, beating out 50 other beauty queens in the live pageant televised from Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
But her runner up, Miss California Carrie Prejean, of San Diego, shocked the audience when she answered a question about legalizing same-sex marriage.
"We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage," Prejean said. "And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised."
Some in the audience cheered, others booed. The answer sparked a shouting match in the lobby after the show.

...asking bubbleheads to form an opinion on complex social issues is an obvious baiting tactic from celebrity instigators...mission accomplished!
