I support gay marriage. Who am I to say a person can't live how they want to? That goes for the rest of the country. If thats what someone wants to do, then more power to them.

Not to trivialize the issue, but I'm going to say the same thing I said when the smoking ban was instituted. "Woohoo...another piece of legislation that doesn't affect me." Wohhh wohhh wohhh, there will be no turning straight people gay without me involved  Wooo. Tag team. *high five* ...there will be no tag teaming while I'm around, thank you. Wait until I leave. |

I think that gay people should be able to get married. Seriously, whats the big deal. This is what pisses me off about the government.
There are no jobs anywhere. The economy is in the toilet. There are terrorist threats left and right. Gas is $4 a gallon.
And yet all these idiot politicians are worried about is making sure gay people (who are already in relationships) can't become officially married. It's not like by making gay marriage illegal you are going to "get rid of gay people" if that is what they are trying to do...like I said, they are already in relationships anyway.
And who cares if gay people get married or not? It's not going to affect my day, so I say let them do it. They should have the same rights as everyone else, THEY ARE PEOPLE. PEOPLE ARE ALL THE SAME, or at least they are supposed to be treated the same.

This ruling is absolutely disgusting!!
So-called 'same-sex' marriage is counterfeit marriage. Marriage is, and has always been, between a man and a woman. We know that it's in the best interest of children to be raised with a mother and a father. To use children as guinea pigs in radical San Francisco-style social experimentation is deplorable. The majority of Americans recognize the fact that legitimate marriage and family are cornerstones of a healthy society. Reasonable people have had enough and are refusing to allow radical extremists to redefine marriage and family into oblivion. So-called 'same-sex marriage' is a ridiculous and oxymoronic notion that has been forced into popular lexicon by homosexual activists and their extremist left-wing allies.

I just heard about this on the news this morning, and I think it's great for them.

I'm glad that it is now legal. I support gay marriage because it is what they want to do, it's their choice. Also, I thought the US was a free country.

The only part about homoseuality I don't agree with is gay mens' way of sex, not a fan of it when men and women do it either though, other than that I'm personally fine with same sex marriages as you can't choose who you fall in love with.

Well, you're supposed to be 13 to be posting here, so im pretty sure 95% of people who are are that age spend time on the internet would have figured it out. And if they didnt, i doubt the name of it would make any real difference to them  |

I love the marriage argument.
The bible argument is null and void. If the bible had any impact on marriage today, then I'd be up sh*t's creek this coming June. No pastor is going to marry my wife and I. Nor will a priest, reverend, chaplain, nor any other figure with any power vested in him by "God". My wedding isn't taking place in a church, or a temple, or a synagogue, nor any other place deemed holy by man.
The bedroom argument is pretty senseless too. I don't give a damn if you're gay, straight, white, black, purple, or blue. You don't get to know about my bedtime stories, and I don't want to hear yours, capiche?
That said, good for California.

There is no difference in a child's well being if it is raised by two men/women or a man and a woman. No difference. It's funny that when judges allow same-sex marriage, they are called activists or extremists, but when they don't allow it, they are fine. What sense does that make? I'm sorry that we want to have the same rights as you. |

What is special about marriage, and beneficial to society, ceases to be special and beneficial to society if the idea of marriage becomes so diluted as to include just about anything. Committed, monogamous relationships between men and women - marriages, in other words - are the foundation of the nation's health, peace, and security. At a time when we are faced with high rates of divorce, teen pregnancy, and rampant STDs, any action taken to undermine the sacrament of marriage is likely to further erode our communities. |

I don't care that you think it dilutes the word. Do you think it dilutes the word when an interracial couple can get married? Because there were laws against that. You know what dilutes the word marriage? The divorce rate. The divorce rate is 50%. If anything, straight people are  ing up marriage. When you say traditional values, you mean conservative values or do you mean the country was founded upon what the bible stands for? If it's the latter, didn't they escape England because of religious persecution and now it's happening here. Bunch of hypocrites. Yeah, because a gay or lesbian couple can't be committed or monogamous. All of that happens and only one state (until yesterday) had same-sex marriage. Guess what all that stuff happened before that one state allowed it as well. So, maybe you need to fix your marriages and your children before you try and fix other people's families and children. |
