8. I don't know how to do that fancy stuff
but I'm all for gay marriage too. Its kinda like a constitutional liberty thing with me. If you are a law abiding, tax paying citizen then you should share in the liberties bestowed upon us by the constitution. If you are a constitution hating religiously insane fascist son of a bitch, you don't deserve constitutional liberties; and this veteran is looking forward to the civil war.

9. That is
so gay.

Why would anyone be against happy marriages?
If you're not happy, you're just probably going to end up divorced.
And there's too many of them already.

16. straight male against marriage for anybody
get the government out of it. The conservatives are against is not just from homophobia, but because they associate marriage with religion. Remember that there are no gay priests. :sarcasm:

Several states already have some sort of domestic partnership/civil union laws. But you can always get your lawyer to arrange for legal rights for your "roommate". You don't need recognition from the government to be married. There are some straight couples in this situation too.

18. my girlfriend and i agreed that we would now never get "married", but get
a civil union anyway. Fuck marriage. they can have it. It's a fucking word. My own beef is more about taking away people's rights. But hell, i think they should allow steroids in sports too.

19. I'm all for Gay marriage..
within marriage there is commitment, stability and support, a right to share in healthcare and love.

1 Cor 13:13 But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

20. We're HERE! We don't FEAR! GET USED TO IT!
Edited on Tue Jun-06-06 03:42 PM by dicksteele
I care more about the "crazy liberal" notion
of EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW than I will ever
care about the ridiculous nonsense that fearful, ignorant fools
use to justify their many irrational hatreds.

These so-called "christians" who clamor for legalalized
discrimination would be well advised to stop THUMPING
their damned bibles and actually READ them sometime.

(Eddit cuz I dint spel gud)

33. I'm not gay at all
But I was proud to stand up for y'all yesterday by casting a NO vote on the banning of same sex marriages in Alabama.

My family and I voted so that discrimination would not be added to our state's constitution, but the brilliance that is AL voters passed it, 80-20%. Sorry. I did my part...

36. Me, too! I'm on board! K&R!
It seems strange to see myself without Jimmy Carter looking back at me, LOL, but changing my avatar, in support of my fellow DUers, and for the rights of gay people everywhere, was the least I could do...:patriot:
