I sense a huge vacuum in the lives of our gay American citizens if gay marriage is legal as they will no longer have a hobby anymore.

The fight against discrimination never ends. Being treated as equal under the law will be a huge victory, but there will always be those who will hate and try to wreck the lives the gay community. That is where the lgbt efforts will probably be focused.

They will find something else to go on about. The activists, I mean. Gay people in general are just people in general. But for the activists, it will never end. It can't ever end. It's their reason for being. It's just like it is with the feminists and the race baiters. The feminists have gone from protesting for the vote and owning property down to calling it a "war" if they don't get free birth control. The race baiters have gone from also wanting the vote and to be able to attend the same schools and use public untilities down to protesting about "racist code words". They have gone past the point of irrelevance and to the point of absurdity, but they're still there. They gain fame, money, power, and a sense of moral righteousness from their struggle. They aren't about to give that up.

What is your constitutional and legal justification for being treated equally any way except under the law?

What I am saying is, not everyone is going to like you for who you are: deal with it.

Enter the homosexual thought police.

Of course forcing acceptance of homosexuality is the only reason homosexuals want same-sex marriage to begin with.

It's all about removing the stigma of being a homosexual and the gay nazis will stop at nothing to take away your Constitutional right to disapprove of homosexuality or reject its state mandated normalization.

Get on with their lives with equal protection under the law.

What are anti-gay religious bigots who spend so much of their time vilifying gay and lesbian people and trying to restrict their rights going to do?

Try to stop the social acceptance of pedophilia, bestiality and the murder of the unborn innocent.
