I still can't understand what someone else's marriage has to do with one's own.
Exactly. I also don't understand why the government should legally recognize marriage of any kind. Marriage is a personal thing, not a legislative issue.
Gays don't ride motorcycles, or drive cars? Maybe they are voting for everyones safety. I'm sure the laws don't say only heteros have to wear helmets, and seatbelts. THEY unlike you are for equal rights, and non exclusion of citizens.
Im sure some do. But restrictive laws are less important to them then marriage and they vote that way.
SS marriage is less important to me, so I vote that way.
Yep, gay folks have been voting against my interests for yrs for their own selfish reasons. Time for me to do the same.
So, you're asserting that homosexuals vote in favor of helmet/seatbelt/sales tax/income tax laws in greater proportion than heterosexuals. Is that right?
You can get legally married in a courthouse by the Justice of the Peace - where is the religious voodoo in that?
Because its still under the word 'marriage'
That is, after all, what these gay rights lobbyists are up in arms about, a word, nothing more.
Im merely saying why is their right to declare themselves 'married' championed, whereas straights rights to declare themselves 'in a partnership' ignored. Its not confusing at all, its a very clear case of double standards.
Legal rights wise, they already have full equality under civil partnership (here in england at least, where some want civil marriage too)
are you against gay marriage for people born with the gay orientation.. or just straight people...
are you saying gay people should have a STRAIGHT MARRIAGE?
