[bobjustbob]

This is a states decision. I have heard this before.

Civil War?

It'll be good once you Americans get this out of the way and put it to bed as it is such a trivial issue. Gay marriage was legalized in Canada a while ago and no one really cared. My life hasn't changed one bit because of it. Fire and brimstone didn't rain from the sky and the gays didn't go out and buttfuck each other on every street corner once it was legalized because they're just normal people.

Do you not remember before the first Civil War they were talking about State Rights?

States rights have been a constant theme since our country was founded it is nothing new. People like yourself who see no other way to make decisions other than to kill or destroy the other point of view are too few in number to really spark such a "War". Just grow old, pass away, and try not to poison to many others before you go.

I know they have.

There are plenty of people who are not liberals and could do something.

Liberals are children who think they need a big federal government to do things for them.

That's why liberals are afraid of those who do not want a big federal government.

Liberals woulkd be very happy with a small government that would not cutt taxes for the rich and make sure that every thing that is not mentioned in the Constitution as a Right is forbidden.

Liberals and conservatives view about Rights and the Constitution :
Liberals : Everything that is not forbidden by the Constitution is allowed.
Conservatives : Everything that is not mentioned in the Constitution as a Right is forbidden

It's obvious no one want to legalize sodomite marriage.

Even people in California did not want it.

Gay Marriage Poll: More Americans Support Marriage Equality

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/09/gay-marriage-poll_n_2267594.html

The plurality of Americans said they support same-sex marriage, according to a new poll.

The poll, released by POLITICO and George Washington University, showed that, out of 1,000 likely voters, 40% of respondents said they support marriage equality. 30% said they supported civil unions and 24% said they didn't think same-sex couples should be able to enter any type of legal union.

Even more telling, perhaps, is how many people--1 in 5--have changed their minds on the issue. This poll lends support to a growing trend that people are evolving on gay rights.

Another important finding is the discrepancy between young and older voters which it comes to the rights of same-sex couples. 63 percent of 18-to-29-year-olds backed same-sex marriage, while only 36 percent of voters from 30-59 said they supported it. Only 30% of seniors said they thought LGBT couples should be able to marry.

For many gay couples, marriage is finally becoming a reality. Today is the first day same-sex couples can get married in Washington, where citizens voted to legalize same-sex marriage in November. In two other states, Maryland and Maine, voters also legalized same-sex marriage. In Minnesota, voters rejected a ban on marriage equality.

Conservative columnist George Will said on Sunday opponents of same-sex marriage are "quite literally" dying.

Last week, the Supreme Court announced it would rule on Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8--the federal and California bans on same-sex marriage. Those rulings are expected in June. If DOMA is overturned, it would open the door to nationwide marriage equality. It would also mean that couples who marry in one state would be able to keep their rights in another.

So Will, you want the Feds to make more decisions for us like who can marry who? You're beginning to sound like the Liberal here looking to grow government. Take the rights away from he states and thus the people get no representation on any level. Did I say Liberal? Sorry, you're sounding more like a Communist now.

They voted. They said no. :hatsoff:

We in Washington voted we said yes!!! But then again we tend to be forward thinkers.

So they say, Washington is messed up.

Forward thinkers? :1orglaugh

Who is they?? Washington State is one of the gems of this country. If you can stomach the rain is just a spectacular state. I have been all over this country and never seen its equal although Eastern Tennessee is very nice and Roanoke Virginia is also.

 

[mikexmoran]

I think DOMA is just dumb and prejudice thinking.

If two people are looking to commit to one another, I don't think they should be denied anything.

It's game time, bitches.

It would be cool to be proud of the Supreme Court for something recently. But we'll see...

I don't understand why so many cavemen are rushing to protect an ancient pagan ritual for so-called Christian reasons.

State Worm not DC.

I was in a same sex marriage; me and the missus were having the same sex every time, 'till the sex stopped.

 

[Straight Shooter]

I never said either sides polls were good. Most are skewed and in reality they reflected the views of only the small percentage that voted on those polls. Polls should never be taken seriously.

The main stream media should not be taken seriously.

This was the same thing you guys said during the presidential election, that the polls were skewed and that Romney would win by a landslide. You can bitch and moan all you want but you're going to be on the wrong side of history. A majority of Americans now support same sex marriage and it's not going to change no matter what you think.
