Why don't the courts simply overrule the will of the people of California as they did with Proposition 187 in 1994?
Oh, wait...sorry. What am I thinking?
Non-citizen illegal aliens have more rights in this country than its own lesbian and gay citizens.
To the 10th power. If you think about the number of Illegal Hispanics that reside in the US and their influence on the legal Hispanic voters they know or are parents of, well I think that would have been more than enough to counter the number to keep it from passing.
I'm not trying to justify anything. Don't assume I'm just talking about myself or anything I might or might not have done, of which you have no knowledge. I'm just telling you. I'm definitely not in the mood to try to say anything gingerly today. I'm sick of all this.
I'm still waiting to find out what actions you know I'm justifying.
Well- it's really simple. When someone gives his or her opinion that they do not like gay marriage, you immediately attack them in a very illogical way. Anyone that opposes is some kind of bigot, close-minded, idiot that probably has some type of sexual problem. And that is your armor to remain defensive.
I, as well as many others, are just giving their opinion without coming across in an attacking in prideful way. It's called opinions. And you, are very much entitled to your own without having an attitude.
If you knew what you were doing was right, you would get all angry, emotional, and defensive about this issue.
Someone believes that marriage is 1 man and 1 woman and they're "gay bashers"?
Precisely. It is self explanatory. Preventing a certain part of the population of having the same rights as the rest of the population is discrimination. b: prejudiced or prejudicial outlook, action, or treatment.
If you discriminate against a certain group of people, than you are a bigot by definition. bigot
Function: noun Etymology: French, hypocrite, bigot Date: 1660 : a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices ; especially: one who regards or treats the members of a group with hatred and intolerance.

So by your definition a polygymist can call anyone who wants to outlaw multiple partners a Bigot, a NAMBLA member can tar any opponent as prejudiced and the FDLS types can call all who disapprove intolererant?
The action of defining difference and making choices based on those differences does not make one a bigot
