It's all about something they want to DEPRIVE the rest of us of.
Exactly!
And, how many who voted against the Gay Marriage BAN will vote in FAVOR of a total MARRIAGE BAN?
It is my guess that the gays have just “jumped the shark” here, and will create a backlash.
It’s always been a war on the family.
Yeah, because you can't have The Will of The People prevailing. Nope, just won't do.
Tiresome, silly people. Yapping Chihuahuas.
The first time I’m confronted by some cretins outside of some business trying to obtain signatures for this moronic idea, I’m going to go 10-8 on their @sses.
This is the tactic they should have taken in the first place - if you don’t like a new law, get it changed.
Their initial tactics of attacking little old ladies in the streets http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ8jeJwrbFQ
were not just wrong but also dumb.
Also, Wouldn’t cravings for 11-year-old girls be considered an “orientation?” Great! Pedophiles can come out now. Thanks, guys! /sarc
Yes, and in the end, (no pun intended) they usually get their way.
Maybe not today, but down the road.
That is a great idea! Everyone in CA can vote to be “domestic partnered”.
File that on your federal tax returns and let us know how you make out...lol
Tiresome, silly people. Yapping Chihuahuas.
Doing Satan’s bidding.
UNdefining marriage has ALWAYS been the underlying goal.
God created the family, Satan, and his willing accomplices on the left, want to destroy it.
I probably should have added “unfortunately” to the post
“by making all couples eligible for marriage benefits”
it was always about the $$$. That’s what marriage is to them.
NAMBLA would agree with this!!!
10-8?
No it’s more like a war on what is percewived to be normal. They want you to believe that gay is as normal as straight. Leaving whatever moral predispositions one has aside, why then are only about 5-6% of the population gay? (that’s including the ones still in the closet)
And this underlines why the natural family MUST be defended in purely natural terms, without reference to supernaturally revealed/Scriptural truths, which are valuable for me (a believer) but should not be the center of any argument concerning public policy.
Social science research across the board shows that the best outcomes for children are correlated with living with their married, natural father and mother in a stable, low-conflict household.
Even children separated from their natural parents (e.g. displaced refugees, abandoned children, adopted children), derive an important sense of identity from their natural fathers (cf. the long-term "Who am I?" quest of Barack Obama, Jr.); fatherhood is neither optional nor redundant. Children likewise require their parents for 18 years and beyond.
Therefore promotion of this particular arrangement, above all others, is not a matter of bias or invidious discrimination, but is a hallmark of sound public policy.
If marriage is to be replaced by legal recognition of domestic partnership only, there is no reason why any house-sharing, whether between a mother and her adult son, two elderly sisters, a wealthy widow and her resident chef, chauffeur, and Feng Shui consultant --- or any number of housemates, should not qualify for "domestic partner" perks: but then, what's the point?
Why should people who merely live together, be licensed by the State and, in net effect, subsidized by people who don't live together? Where is the public interest?
all the pot smoking libertarians who have the foolish notion of “get government out of the marriage business” and the slew of nonsense that goes with it.
(immigration rules, inheritance, paternity, etc...)
Quite frankly it's none of their damned business. No State should be charging a fee or 'legally' recognizing any relationship between consenting adults.
There's no Constitutional basis for that anywhere.
Anyone who wants to marry in any Church should be free to do so without having to pay one thin dime to the State.
Get the State entirely OUT of the business of 'recognizing' any interpersonal relationship between consenting adults.
Period.
