Interracial marriage is immoral in my opinion but the majority have since made it more acceptable, and we have to go along with the majority. [/quote]

Shhh... you had me at Hail Hitler. Thanks for revealing your true agenda. I now know to ignore you.

Please feel free to do so if you are unable to stand opposing viewpoints or the content of this city-data forum that allows it.

The more leftist emotional people that ignore me will result in less aggravation for me and the many who share my same principles.

no one is forcing you to tolerate gay people in any way. you can still laugh at gay people if you want.

Why should the law-abiding citizens of this great country be made to tolerate the lazy minority that refuse to speak English fluently? Why should anybody who lives in the United States of America be getting by with not communicating in the language of the land, which is English?

Why must I be forced to speak with a foreign-accented representative from some third-world country who I can barely understand when I call for technical assistance or banking information? Why, when I ask to be transferred to a person in the United States, am I denied that option; and why is that considered intolerant or racist?

Why must the majority be forced to tolerate abnormal lifstyles such as homosexuality? Why aren't the rabid quantity of AIDS cases and other STDs enough to convince people about the dangers to society when people engage in such degenerate methods?

Most of all, relative to the above issue, why do the majority of people have to sit on the sidelines and put up with an elite minority of high and mighty judges that legislate from their benches? Why is it okay when a judge ignores the basic foundations of society as well as the Constitution and makes a knee-jerk decision, but it's considered barbaric, homophobic, and backwoods when the majority of voters constitutionally approve bans on same-sex marriage?

Why do we all have to change the way we live and go green just to satisfy a small minority of outspoken doomsday environmentalists? Why can't this small group of activists change their ways and stop pushing legislation to affect the rest of our everyday lifestyles?

Why have we allowed ourselves to be shoved into a politically-correct state of so-called tolerance of unorthodox ways? Society is crumbling around us thanks to all this wonderful diversity, and we sit on our hands and swallow it like castor oil. Can anybody explain the reasons in a rational manner without the usual bashing or name-calling?

They have a right to live where they so choose. Forcing integration never has worked.

So how is that contradictory?

Separate but equal would designate where people were allowed to live based on ethnicity, essentially taking away their right to "live where they so choose".

I wonder how you can not see how separate but equal and freedom are essentially opposite ends of the spectrum. But believing what you believe, it isn't exactly surprising that such gaping logical holes have to be overlooked.

Forcing segregation has never worked either. But historical precedent must be something you omit from your arguments as well. Similarly unsurprising.

What is really amazing is how the leftists claim to be so tolerant of other viewpoints, but they quickly retort to name-calling, personal attacks, and bigoted labeling when they do not agree with viewpoints that are opposite of theirs.

Now can anybody else post responses in a dignified rational manner?
Are you joking? Who do you think you are?

That's not what it means. Educate yourself before you make statements like this.

Agree or not your lives are affected by the millions of illegals, foreign-accented representatives in distant third-world nations, the outspoken homosexual-rights activists, the elite minority of judges, and a few rabid environmental wackos.

...In no way is this denying homosexuals their civil rights. It is the traditional definition of marriage that has been completely accepted throughout the progression of mankind.
Um, the Constitution has not been around as long as mankind.

I am not implying that AIDS is not affecting heterosexuals. It has spread from the homosexuals to the heterosexuals by way of transmission through unprotected intercourse, experimenting with multiple partners that are sexually active with the opposite sex and with the same sex.
And you're an authority on AIDS??? What are your credentials?

Nobody should have to tolerate anything that is disagreeable especially when it is immoral or illegal.

Homosexuals can fornicate in their closets and shut up about equal rights because they are not equal in this regard.
This is the most outrageous crap I have ever heard.

If you believe that is a bad thing as you put it, look at how people in society mingle even to this day. Blacks generally mix better with blacks, hispanics with hispanics, Asians with Asians, whites with whites and so on. That is why you see many ethnic neighborhoods in larger cities, Little Havana, Little Mexico, Chinatown. Suburban and rural America often attract more white people.

People of different races usually like to be around members of their own race because they are more comfortable. Forcing integration has not worked. People should live where they so choose.
This is insane.

Fast forward to modern times, homosexual marriage has been turned down by registered voters in every state that has taken the issue to the voting polls. People do not wish to be forced to accept change when it destroys the moral fabric of society. Marriage is between one man and one woman only!
