Polls can be wrong and of course we shouldn't take them with 100% accuracy, but for the first time ever, approval for Same-sex marriage is higher than disapproval. “Do you think gays andlesbians should have a constitutional right to get married and have their marriage recognized by law as valid?” Here, for what’s believed to be the first time, 52% of Americans said yes. 46% said no, and the other 2% had no opinion. This according to a CNN poll. Also for the second time, the poll found that people believe homosexuality to be moral.  So things look to be changing, even if polls aren't always accurate at least it seems to be a step in the right direction. |

It's a good thing that polls don't effect my individual views.

Because if it is, it's totally gone over my head. |

Nice to know over 50% of people dont have their head up their ass. Let them practice their beliefs if they want to.

Oh I get it. Well, I guess I am lucky. I've seen people literally change their opinions based on what the majority thinks. |

This is rather good, although I myself would be in the "no opinion" category. I think it is a step in the right direction, but at the end of the day it has no immediate effect on me, so I am not too concerned over it.
I know this means a lot to you, so I hope to see more and more polls go in your direction.

Glenn Beck has said that same-sex marriage is not a threat to America.
I think I'm gonna have a heart attack.

They also dont say who and where they polled. They could have polled outside of a Starbucks in San Francisco. I can bet it would garner a different reading then if you polled outside a Baptist Church in Alabama.

If they polled from outside of starbucks in San francisco it would have been 99.9% For same sex marriage..and that other 0.1% wouldn't even be opposing it..just a ''No Comment.'' |

In 1968 a Gallup poll found that only 20% of people approved of inter-racial marriage. 73% disapproved. Yet the Supreme Court still legalized inter-racial marriages. |

It doesn't bother me at all and I think it is right that they eventually get equal rights. So happy CA seems to be on that path now.  |

Who cares.
Obviously like half of America, I know, but I mean, who cares about same sex marriages.
Gay people.
Straight people.
See that? Both groups are people. They're the exact same. Why should gays be treated differently? It's amazing that this issue exists. Americans are so proud of equal rights among races, and we're still doing terrible things to gays.

To hell with all "marriage."
But if it has to be one way or another, I say give them their marriage.

Im just saying dont expect to wake up next week and be allowed to get married in Wisconsin (think that's where you're from) just because a poll taken God knows where by the Liberal News Network says that more people say Yay then nay. |
