I'd rather that our Constitution not be littered with ridiculous amendments to address the burning passions of the moment.
The United States is a Federal Republic! Each state should decide.
People who support this amendment are leading us down the slippery slope which will ultimately lead to the destruction of the Republic.

Oh-oh Ambrose, here we go again. :) Different sides. LOL!
How can following the Constitution's provisions for amending it, lead us down the slippery slope?

Howlin, this is for you:
There are two paths to constitutional amendment, only one of them involves a convention. The proposal endorsed today DOES NOT involve a convention.
