“You’re creating with this child that it’s a lifestyle, don’t go out and marry someone else of a different sex because this is natural,” she said. “But if I had a next door neighbor who was in a gay relationship, I could be just as friendly to them as I could be to you and your wife or anybody else. I’m not saying that we ostracize them or anything like that. I’m just saying I’m against marriage because once you get the gay marriage you get everything else.”

1. Dear god.

Let me get this straight (no pun intended): 'straight' people would enter a gay marriage just to get a free ride? If that were the case, why wouldn't they just enter a 'straight' marriage? I don't get it...

4. That's know as "grasping at straws".

Desperate people do that when they run of of logical arguments.

10. So, as a straight person I could gay marry to get free ride....to what? The store? Shop for drapes?

Learn to dress better? Every gay person I know knows how to dress well.

I myself, I do have a fashion statement, it's just for the semi-illiterate.

2. hmm, free ride huh?

well, as married person I'd think the last thing a marriage could be called would be a "free" ride.
and just to get insurance blah blah blah, i got news for this concerned whack job, it's already happening and has been as long as i can remember...

5. "...once you get the gay marriage you get everything else"

*Everything* else? World peace? A solution to climate change? An end of racism? Global equality for women? Economic justice for all?

8. Everything else: Blacks marrying Asians, Eskimos marrying Saudis. You know, "everything".

Can't have that.

7. And of course, there's never been a case where heterosexual friends

entered into a fake marriage so they could claim the benefits of a married couple! What an idiot!

[Frustratedlady]

12. Could she be talking about tax breaks, health insurance...

That article/speech doesn't make any sense, at all.

I will say, without a doubt, I would not want to be her neighbor and I'm straight! Bigots make my skin crawl.
