Same sex marriage

Despite the fact that I don't agree w/ same sex marriage, I do feel that they should have the right to get married! No way should there be a constitutional ammendment prohibiting it.
We must look at the whole priciple behind the anti-discrimination precedent it by allowing it!
Imagine if what this place would be like if minorities or women were still silenced. If you don't agree w/ it don't associate w/ them people, but don't discriminate or prejudge...

Now you are just acting dumb. Marriage should only be between two people that love each other (and are over 18 years old and not related because that would produce retarded babies).
People tried saying retarded stuff like that back in the days too because they didn't like that black and white people got married to eachother.
In ten years time we will look back at this as just as stupid.
The other retarded argument someone guarantee will bring up is that gay people can't produce offspring. But what about couples where the man or the woman are sterile, should every man do a sperm check to see if the soldiers were marching before he could allow to marry a woman?
Every other argument is religion based and therefore not relevant.

WELL THEN,WHAT IF A WOMAN IS BISEXUAL???ARE YOU GONNA TELL HER SHE CANT LOVE AND MARRY 2 PEOPLE SINCE SHE WAS "BORN" THAT WAY????IF YOU ALLOWED GAYS TO MARRY AND NOT BI'S TO MARRY 2 PEOPLE WOULD THAT NOT BE DISCRIMINATION????AT ONE TIME I WAS IN LOVE WITH 2 WOMEN...WHY COULDNT I HAVE MARRIED THEM BOTH????IS THAT NOT DISCRIMINATING AGAINST ME????
CASE CLOSED.
CASE CLOSED.
I'm acting dumb? Funny, you dont seem to be quite intellectual yourself. Secondly my arguement is valid. Who are we to intercede in their hapiness right? If 5 people want to get married what gives YOU the right to say that cant happen? If a person loves their dog so much that they want to share that love with the dog what gives YOU the right to say that is immoral or illegal? What about the mormons and their vies on poligamy? Thats religious discrmination, you are allowing them to take more than one wife.
I do not see this even as close as the african american civil rights movement. I never said gays should have their own drinking fountains, their own schools, their own housing, etc. I also dont think i'll look back at this in ten years and think its stupid, I think its stupid already.
someone guarantee will bring up? Is that even coherent? And you bring up the word retarded?!! Remember it is best to be thought of as a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. What about couples that cant produce offspring? They can adopt. Sure THEY can't because they are barren but naturally a woman and a man can produce offspring. What do you think would have happened to the population on this earth 4000 years ago if every one was gay? I doubt that we would even be alive.
Religion based? Not relevant? And you know this how? Arguements are opinions, I can assure you there are atheist that do not like gay people getting married. that is a fact.

LOL! If a dude's bi, he's still gay as can be.
Anyways.... I voted no....
I know that in the past I said that I could care less about same sex marriages cuz there's bigger problems than that in this country.
Gay people are living together already so what's the big deal?
I think as humans, they deserve the same perks that come with marriage. Tax cuts, etc....
But on the other side of the coin you have people who argue that marriage is the union of a male and the female who come together as one in family.
Ok ok.... How about civil union for gays?
For those who voted yes and no, what do you think about civil union? It's the same shit but with a different name yet it will make both sides happy....

Why shouldn't gays have the right to marriage? They live together right now with no strings attached and their relationships are much stronger than most straight marriages. If gays marry maybe it could bring our marriage rate back up and our divorce rate down. Marriage is something that should be cherished, and right now the people of the United States are not holding it to a high enough standard anymore. The divorce rate is higher than it's ever been though out history. Maybe letting gays get married will help let others see the real importance behind marriage.
This is true. Gay people are going to be around forever. They are not just going to die off and never be seen again. African- American people never die off either, and that time many of people thought that it would be ludicrous for them to have equal rights, but it happened and now we look back and see how ridiculous that really was. So, if gays are going to get married, they'll get married. If they have to, it may come down to violent acts. Repression will only hold people back for so long. If they do make a constitution amendment it can get taken out later (just like the 18th amendment) because I don't think the gay society will let this go easily.
God may punish them for going against his words. That’s something that is going to happen anyways because they’re already together. So, may as well let them live a happy life now and pay with a eternal hell later.

I personally just don't see what the big deal is. We will let Michael Jackson marry, six pack Joe, the gambling addicted alcoholic wife beater marry, but not gay people?
I just don't see the evidence against the gay community to ban them from getting married. And if the Bible is to be used then there is a breach between Church and State. Conservitive Christians must realize, like the first conlonists understood, that there is life beyond the Bible.

Yes it does. Up to four legal wives I belive.
How the hell should I know? What are the benefits of marrying a homosexual? I dont know. But if you want to give people 'equality' then dont give me that shit that you can't be married to a woman, a tree, and a picture of your dead ex-wife, because telling these people/things they cant marry is not equality. But I guess some people that want to be married are more equal than others.
