I personally do not agree with gay marriage, but i have two reason why i support it. We live in a free country and i support freedom and as a follower of christ it is not my duty to judge others for their belief. Only God can make that decision not me.

It has little to do with what you think of gay marriage on a personal level. It has more to do with not wanting one more way for the government to tell you what you can and cannot do.

Also, I like to think of gay marriage as a victimless crime.

 

[Getbig2]

Im compeletly against it, marriage is natural between a man and a woman! If gays want to live their lives different to do it in private. I dont want to have to see that in public its not natural. But thats just me. I worked with a guy that was gay, he kept it to himself and was pretty cool and laid back, he knew I was against and never tried to force me to accept what he did in private as ok to do in public, likewise I never forced him to believe my way either. He kept his life private and I kept my opinions private. And we lived in peace.

regardless of ones beliefs on marriage if you changed your facebook profile to the stupid red and pink box you are a fag and should be shot. you shouldn't be shot for being a fag, but for posting the most annoying symbol in the history of the world on social media. Holy shit that red box with the pink equal sign makes me want to vote against gay marriage just because of how offensive that symbol is to my ocular sense.

In other news it's a state issue. The states have always had the right to regulate marriage. We don't allow family members to marry, and we don't allow polygamy. If you argue for gay marriage how do you argue against polygamy? If cousins want to get married why shouldn't they be able to?

all 3 of those cartoons at the top are stupid by the way.

I thought Homos had style and taste? How the hell did they let stupid ass sign out of committee?

Seems to me that the issue of gay marriage is about civil rights. It will pass, it's only a matter of time. Personally, I hope the time is now. I do agree with Bio-chem and his vehemence against all the insipid symbols people use to display their particular views. I'm not into social media for the most part, and I wouldn't start a facebook page if you paid me to do it. All these fucking ribbons and such drive me crazy. As if wearing a ribbon or symbol makes any difference. Such an easy way for people to delude themselves that they are doing something about whatever issues they support. Just vote your conscience. If you want to do something, volunteer your time or donate your money to back your cause.

What if those kids want to have both mom and dad like their friends have when they grow up? Kids are the victims. I hate fuggin libtards. It is not only religious value, it is also human right. They should be only allowed to adopt gay teens.

I hope it passes.


Then I can't wait for the first gay divorce. Who will get half of whose shit?

First gay divorce? The first time gay marriage was legalized in the San Francisco, the first gay divorce happened a couple hours later (technically an annulment).

So nobody got half of anybody's shit then?

See that's what I'm waiting for. More of a long term thing probably.

Seriously though. Let the gays marry and legalize (and tax) weed.

Any other issues I need to solve/resolve while you got me here?

*edit* I'm also pretty sure we can tax gay marriage. I mean it costs to get license, right? Think of the money we're leaving on the table. Really hike up the cost of all marriage licenses while we're at it. Let people really think about that shit before doing it. Maybe we'd have more serious applicants and divorce rates would decline?

This is the part of gay marriage that interests me. When two muff-divers get divorced, who get's the children and an unfair share of the property?

My guess is the one who hires the best lawyer

I am not pro-gay marriage for the same reasons others have posted. However, I also believe that it is NOT the goobermint's place to be involved in what goes on between two consenting adults. I believe that the Defense of Marriage Act was pure bullshit. In the past, people got married simply by living together. Then as the world progressed, some form of oath before witnesses happened and a feast followed. Then the churches got in the game and registered marriages. The state saw a perfect opportunity to put their nose where it does not belong and require a license or certificate to legalize the marriage. The earliest know American marriage certificate is in the Smithsonian dated 1632 or in that area. After WWI when the solders wee coming back from Europe with venereal diseases, the government claimed it was a safety issue to check out both partner before they could marry. However, this did not mention the fact that there was a fee (tax) associated with the civil marriage license. The role of government in marriage issues is revenue driven, just like everything else. Marriage is something regulated by the states, not the federal government and it should left at that.

So far all the research suggests kids raised by gay parents do just as well as those raised by heterosexuals.

Religious value? What makes you think you get to impose your religious views on others?

Exactly, and as an American you don't get to impose your religion on others.

I'm for gay marriage, and I'm not opposed to polygamy or marrying ones cousin. Who gives a shit?

And, whether its a state or fed issue, there is no legitimate reason to discriminate against them. The case in review right now is based solely on the fact that gays can't procreate, and therefore they shouldn't be allowed to marry. It's a losing argument for those opposed, and they just look really stupid trying to come up w reasons it should be illegal.

You do realize that gays sometimes bring things upon themselves, right?

How same-sex "marriage" affects Massachusetts

This book handed out to Middle schoolers in Massachuchets school
[h=3]"The Little Black Book - Queer in the 21st Century"[/h]

"The Little Black Book - Queer in the 21st Century." Handed out at Brookline High School during GLSEN event April 30, 2005.
Is this the future? This booklet was distributed to hundreds of kids (middle school age and up) at Brookline High School, Brookline, MA, on April 30, 2005. It was written by the Boston-based AIDS Action Committee, with help with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Boston Public Health Commission.
The event that day was designed for children and their teachers across Massachusetts, organized by the "Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network" (GLSEN). This is the group that runs "Gay-Straight Alliance" clubs in public schools across the country. You must ask yourself: What kind of person would write this? What kind of person would give it to kids? Where is this movement headed?

"What if those kids want to have both mom and dad like their friends have when they grow up? Kids are the victims. I hate fuggin libtards. It is not only religious value, it is also human right. They should be only allowed to adopt gay teens."

In terms of kids raised by gay parents, many are adopted. Go into foster care and ask any kid if they would reject having a home based on the sexuality of their caregivers.
Also, think your shi# through. This is fugging reality. Life isn't fair. Kids get abandoned, have deadbeat parents, get abused, starved and worse. If you think the biggest concern a kid could have is the perception of some classmates, you're an actual fugging retard. A child raised by parents that actually want them is a blessed child, regardless prudish social stigma.

 

[exphys88]

Crap like Prop 8.

Explain how they bring on a law that prevents them from marrying. Prop 8 is the result of people trying to impose their opinion of marriage on others. I'm not following you here.

If you're a bigot, and want your kids to be bigots, educate them yourself, simple solution. Sorry, but your homophobia isn't a good enough reason for gays to be discriminated against.

This whole gay marriage thing has been way to over complicated. Homosexuals are people that share a full range of emotions with hetrosexuals. Pay taxes, serve in our military, police and fire control forces like hetro sexuals. The federal government has become joke because they spend time legislating issues like this. This is a no brainer... No federal law should ban gay marriage. Move it to the states and let them take the pulse of their state. You don't like your states position stance one way or the other...move. Let people live the life they want.
