Would you offer the same sentiment to be expressed about black people " i dont support negro civil rights"...?
Maybe so. We know that the birther king, despite losing the popular vote, will be moving into The White House which has given some assorted characters the belief that they now have a passport for bigotry and discrimination.

Gay marriage is legally protected in our country, and that's all there is to it.
The supreme court once upheld slavery among many other terrible things. Was that all there is to it?

It's this exact reason why Trump won in so many states. People were secret about their beliefs in fear of being labeled. When they got in the voting booth, they voted with their heart.


That must have been horrible for them! Imagine, having to keep a secret about something you truly feel with every fiber of your being, for fear of being labeled. Ridiculed in public, and even beaten to death!

You just deflected again.

Actually he has no intention of any of that. He's a businessman and he's going to cut through all this nonsense created by the Democrats to divert the attention from their dim followers as to what they were actually doing. Tearing down our borders, outsourcing our jobs with the intent of turning this country into a nation of 1 billion, mostly ignorant and uneducated peasants.

No one else's marriage weakens the sanctity of my marriage. Only me and the wife can do that.

The only videos I've seen of this behavior was toward Trump supporters. I have never seen a gay person ridiculed or beaten in my life nor have I've seen video evidence of it happening.

How do I feel when someone says they don't "support" gay marriage? I feel like you're entitled to your opinion, but not that you're entitled to dictate your feelings to restrict the rights of others.

So long as the government is in the business of licensing marriages, there is no rational basis to not allow gay people to marry each other.

Don't like interracial marriage? Don't get one.
Don't like inter-religious marriage? Don't get one.
Don't like gay marriage? Don't get one.

See how that works?
