On the gay issue, I have gay friends. I really don't care on the gay marriage issue.

They are stupid to think that sexual preference defines them as a person.
Nothing good ever follows a statement like this.

Nothing good ever comes from someone basing their identity on sexual preference. One can say "I am a therapist". One does not have to say "I am a gay or transgender therapist".

Nevada has other plans to become the "Quickie Divorce Capital" for married Gay people! There'll be a ton of money to made from that!

There's no 100% unity amongst any group of people. An Hawaiian Lesbian legislator stood opposed to Gay marriage in Hawaii!

I'm Gay, and I join in that opposition! And I'm not the only one!!!

Why would you oppose the right to marry for one specific group of people?

9th amendment
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

When someone throws out a statement about their sexuality, Tara, that is sort of their choice. I don't care to hear about it either, but this thread was about marriage laws, and I don't particularly care who marries who, nor do I think the state should dictate that (provided these people are of age.)

UPDATE: "A federal judge in Utah — who last week issued a controversial ruling allowing same-sex marriages — on Monday denied the state’s request for a stay."
