I do not understand the reason for banning gay marriage. They are human beings who fall in love and want to spend their lives with that person. Who are we to judge who gets married whether it be gay or straight? Why do we have to categorize it at all… MARRIAGE is just that marriage…
1. The definition of marriage as take from bing.com is this legal relationship between spouses: a legally recognized relationship, established by a civil or religious ceremony, between two people who intend to live together as sexual and domestic partners.
2. The definiton of marriage as taken from merriam-webster.com: a (1) : the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law (2) : the state of being united to a person of the same sex in a relationship like that of a traditional marriage
Sure under the merriam definition it does state opposite sex in the first part but in the second part it mentions same sex as well. This aggravates me immensely that we are judging other people based on their sexual preference and denying them what ANY human being should be granted. For goodness sake just because someone feels different than you do does NOT make you right or them wrong. They are opinions and EVERYONE’s vary. Where does any state get off on telling people they cannot marry someone of the same sex? These people are generally law abiding, hard-working, tax paying citizens just like straight people.
Bringing religion into it is NOT a reason to deny or make gay marriage outlawed. There is a separation of church and state for a reason (at least there is supposed to be). Remember that. Our ancestors created that separation for a reason. NOWHERE in the definition marriage does it say ANYTHING about religion, sexual preference, or even marrying someone a different race than you. We live in a melting pot of a country where there are people from ALL over the world come. They are Spanish, Italian, African, Brazilian, Colombian, among soooooooooooo many others. What makes our government fit to tell or you that we can’t marry someone of the same sex. Granted I am straight but the point is I do NOT want the government telling me who I am allowed to fall in love with and decide to marry.
In North Carolina they VOTED to ban gay marriage. Who the hell are all of you people to say that someone can’t marry a person they love. You are NOWHERE near perfect and therefore should NOT have any say in what others do in their lives. Why should you get to judge anyone else for loving a person of the same sex? Why should my neighbor be allowed to tell me who I can and can’t marry? What is next...my neighbors can tell me what car to drive because THEY think it is the right thing? Also in North Carolina there were a handful of employers that offered a domestic partnership benefits . Because of this friggin’ amendment those employers have to take it away because the only legal partnership is marriage. North Carolina needs to get with the times as does every other state in this country.
People are gay. Who cares! Who they choose to love has no bearing on my life. Gay people don’t stand over you and try to force you to be gay...so stop telling them that the only way they can be married is to be straight. Treat others as you want to be treated. Show respect, kindness, care, and take care of yourself. Stop trying to dictate what others need to do to measure up to YOUR standards. Personally, all of you who want to ban gay marriage are a bunch of PRICKS that think they are better than everyone else. Let me tell you something…YOU ARE NOT! You are lower than pond scum and do not deserve to get a vote in this country if you think that gay marriage should be banned. Being GAY does not make you a bad person. Being gay does not make you different. There are PLENTY enough gay people in this country (obviously they don’t live in N.C.) to say that they are a small percentage of the country. So to you GAY HATERs out there in the world...GET OVER IT. Gay people had the same organs that you do on the inside, they breathe the same air, go to the same universities, and YES…some of them even take care of you as they are doctors, lawyers, or even a mechanic.
You, yes you, the lady who says that gay people can’t marry….how would you like if someone told you that you couldn’t have that GOD AWFUL hair cut you have simply because they are uncomfortable with it? You wouldn’t like it, would you? I also hate to tell you that gays have always been around they will always be around so either ACEEPT it…or go live under a rock.
