I was thinking about it one day, and realized. the gays ruined gay marrige for themselves. they suddenly becames so damned agressive about it during an election year, making people feel threatened. and then proposing to ban it. it they were calmer about it and didn't start those illegal marriges in san fransico, they could've trying to get people to be more accepting.
there are a few things they neeed to fix before people can be more accepting, mainly stopping those retarded gay pride parades. what better way to get peopl eto think that you're normal than by parading throught the streed in womens underwear while a man in leather leads you on a chain.

heh, heh. Thats a chuckle. True, gay pride parades don't exactly set Joe and Jane Sixpack's minds at ease about how normal gay people are. That said, the parades certainly are colorful and stir commentary...

I agree, I had discussed this on another board. By trying to force the issue, the gay community created a backlash of protectionism.

With the Judicial in Mass deciding for or in place of the voters, other states were swamped with ballot initiatives - aimed at stopping the judicial in their state from deciding for them.

I agreed that it is and should be an issue for voters - and not the judicial system.

With the San Fran mayor deciding to interpret the law ( just as Mass did) and allow gay marriages - even though it was already against state law in CA he fueled the constitutional amendment push.

I saw it coming - others thought they could impose their will through the courts, but the voters stopped it.

I think if it would have been handled differently - such as a civil union, or legal partnership - the rights could have been granted.

And that is right - the rights haven't been taken away - they never existed.

Did the Christians do this to themselves, by way of opening the door to interpretation of marriage, examining the rights of the individual, and religion being pushed through faith based initiatives to lead to moral decay?

LOL, really.

Gay people handled it just right. It's the rest of us that dropped the ball.

one thing that made me against gay marrige (I'm for it now, but not gonna fight for it) right after hey had the weddings in san fransico, there was a gay pride parade with men wearing weding dresses, and acting like general freaks. they were mocking it!

You have it all mixed up there pal. The aggression came from banning it. Homosexuals have been trying to gain their rights for the last 30 or 40 years.

Are people ALL missing the point?


All the gays wanted was to be treated as equals under the law.


Is that not their constitutional right?


Perhaps this was all to bring attention to the fact that certain members of our society are (illegally) deferring their taxes onto others.


The constitution states that taxes shall be levied fairly, and equally.


I don't think current laws live up to that criteria.


Perhaps, when all the dust settles, this might be a topic that should be investigated, and rectified, so as not to create other, similar problems in the future.

So just where does it say 'Marriage'? - that was the death blow to this movement.

If they would have gone 'civil' rights they might have gotten it - now they have taken a giant step backwards.

Who is at fault - the ones who screamed 'marriage' - You must accept me and my alternative lifestyle as 'normal'.

Sorry it isn't. In fact it may never get to the point it was before the idiots screamed 'marriage' .

This seems like such a non-issue to me. Get government out of marriage!!! Eliminate any tax structure that gives anyone an advantage or disadvantage in regards to how they choose to live their life...alone or paired/ Gay or "straight". When/if I get married. It's just gonna happen. No signing papers or "registering for a license" or any of that nonsense. Just my girl and our families. No government assistance required....(If gay couples could put as much energy into stuff that actually mattered as they do with arguing over a government issued status symbol, we'd could have a real movement).

That is just the point, equal to which in family court, a man or a woman? There are distinct differences between the two where one trumps the other. What the politicians didn't think through far enough ahead for is that in divorce court men usually get the boot. Which gay man is going to take that position? Which gay woman is going to take that position? They would have to rewrite the current laws and that would cost votes and that is out of the question.

Think about it, doesn;t it make sense?

I would call that an astute observation.


When hypocracy exists within the law, the law cannot stand.


That is why all unconstitutional laws must be abolished.


They are causing the whole house to fall.


I seem to be developing a style of writing one liners. Perhaps it is because the answers are so simple. Follow the original law, the law on which all others rest, the constitution.


What ever happened to the "see rule one" signage?

when I said only one wore a dress, I meant that only one man wore a dress. which is still weird.
when I said they got aggressive, I was referring to the ilegal marriges in san fransico. if they had been calm they migt have gotten to get some people to be more accepting. but people will never be accepting if they continue to push the image of the flaming weirdo homosexual with those damn pride parades.

Is the problem with the so called "normal" people? They mistake the desire of gays for equal treatment under the law as a plea to be seen as "normal". I think if you ask a gay they will tell you that they do not want to be seen as "normal" they just want to have equal rights under the law.
