What in the world is happening to our society? Every society that has embraced homosexuality and pedophilia (like the ancient Greeks and Romans) has collapsed soon after.

... any two individuals have a right to join together in a civil marriage.

Why just two?

Can I marry my mother? My father? My daughter?

If not, why not?

[OCCASparky]

NH PING!

Damn libs have made turned "Live Free or Die" from a motto into a punchline.

FreepMail me if you want on or off this list.

I think the end times are here!

[andy58-in-nh]

As with the people who comprise them, every society is born with an expiration date. Eventually they wear out and can no longer defend themselves against the ravages of time and nature. I think we’re on the Back Nine.

This is not the same state I moved to back in the early 90’s, having escaped socialism in Canada.
I don't recognize this place anymore, so I'm packing up the family and getting out. Heading down South, where conservatives are still welcome.

[FreedomFerret]

State by State, we’re falling faster and faster...

[LibLieSlayer]

NH... “Live under satan or die”.

Sen. Matthew Houde, D-Lebanon, said many younger voters in the state have already concluded that same-sex marriage is acceptable, and are waiting for lawmakers to catch up to them. “This is not a question of ‘if’ for me. It’s a question of ‘when.’ We should be eager to be on the right side of this issue,” Houde said.

You'll notice this exact talking point has been showing up on FR a lot lately.

Mark well the crypto-trolls who use it....

[longtermmemmory]

this is no compromise.

this is just American Bar Association doctrine doublespeak.

they want to make all marriage a “civil union” so it can be defined an limited by legislative determination. Marriage in the traditional context is OUTSIDE of legislative limitations and is broadly construed in the laws.

This is just the ABA’s effort to remove marriage from the legal domain. IOW no marriage under the law just these sham civil unions regardless of you personal orgasm preferences.

The Highest Court is not of this earth, and it will never recognize homosexual "marriages".

[DuncanWaring]

There was a time the homosexuals were screaming “Get the government out of our bedrooms!”

Now they’re screaming the opposite.

[xmission]

I am so sick of these jackasses usurping power and doing whatever the hell they want.

I say we push for plural marriage right now. Can we all put something together quickly? Anyone here a lawyer?

Is it just me or is this an overly juvenile response to a difficult (or not so difficult) question..."But MOOOOOMMMMM! All the COOL kids are doing it!!!"

Maybe the Old Man in the Mountain collapsing a few years ago was an omen.

Sen. Matthew Houde, D-Lebanon, said many younger voters in the state have already concluded that same-sex marriage is acceptable, and are waiting for lawmakers to catch up to them.

This is the key point. The short term is pretty much a lost cause for the GOP; they therefore need to figure out how to retool their message for the next generation.

[massmike]

Isn’t it funny how this didn’t happen BEFORE the election last November?
