forum
I am personally excited for the gay marriage forum, and i hope one certain man is there. Someone asked him a question last year and he responded with ” if we legalize gay marriage then what stops people from wanting to marry an animal.” Okay, we get it you want to be a wise-guy, but seriously what SANE human bein would want to marry an animal. You cant have personal feelings /...

Reading this article made me smile, but the main reason i wanted to post this was because of what mayor bloomberg said. He said that “he would stop stop donating to the republicans who didntsupport the measure.” Finally someone is putting their foot down and saying someone needs to do something about this, and now seeing that the majority of new york wants gay marriage legalized i hope...

Monday's Readers' Page centerpiece: gay marriage →
This article is basically saying that natural marrigae is between a man and a woman because thats the only way to produce. Yes, you need a man and a woman to produce everyone in their right mind knows that. BUT that doesnt mean that, that should define the word marriage. If people are worried about reproduction what about IVF? What about the millions of children in foster care because the home...
Why the word "marriage" isn't civil union enough?
The word marriage is the only thing legally binding, if your just in a civil union with someone its not technically recognizedby the law. If something happens to your husband/wife you can receive their benefits, if and only if you are a man and a woman. But what if someone is gay and has been gay for their whole life then what? All the benefits will go to their family, no matter how long...

– Newt Gingrich a candidate for the 2012 presidential election clearly a republican. He is also the man who told his THRID wife who was laying on her death bed sick with cancer that he was leaving her.

“When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a...”
Dont Ask Dont Tell policy
This policy is now repealed but is a policy that bans any gay man, lesbian and bisexual serving in the military. “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” is the only law in this country that authorizes the firing of an American simply for coming out as gay, lesbian, or bisexual. Even if this policy wasnt banned i wouldnt have thought that it was right. No one no matter what should be told...
