No ones civil rights were affected by this proposition. Everyone still has the same rights as everyone else. People comparing this slavery or woman's rights to vote are the ones being ignorant. You have no control if you were born black or a woman, but you do have a choice to be gay. This has nothing to do with religion. This is about the preservation of our society and goverment should only support and uphold an institution between a man and a woman.

no ar

I should pass....I voted yes to prop ****

It is not about discrimination. It is about the right thing to do...
Lets not change human nature and what we were made to be.....

I don't want to tell children that is right to do something that is not right....

Now I now God is real

People stop playing victim and using words like discrimination to benefit your sin wishes....

uhh ya your answer to a "traditional" marriage is what 52% divorce rate?? ya really good on protecting your marriages between JUST a man and a woman!!! stupid idiots. and even if it does pass. there is a reason why it was stated unconstitutional by the state supreme court. and it will get overturned eventually so build a bridge and GET OVER IT.

95% reporting in, yes looks like it Passnd im glad it does, gay marriage is wrong.

"Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable. (Lev 18:22) basically its a abomination and wrong in God's eyes.

Some girl got in my fae about this because she wants NO and i wanted YES. to tell the truth i really don't care. I mean I do, but they are fooling you by bringing the constitution in this. Domestic partnership is exactly the same as marraige. Why can't straight people do this? No if we do domestic partnership and we arn't gay, we get thrown in jail for fraud...

To everyone out there arguing about "religious freaks" and "protecting the children"... I honestly don't mind if you have gay marriage, but please do not fight for your civil liberties by removing mine.

Forcing religon to accept gay marriage??? How can you justify that? You might as well just tell us all that we are not free to believe what we choose. There are a lot of things that religion does not accept and thats why it is not for everyone. I would never ask you to accept that marriage is between a man and his animal. You wouldn't buy it, and I would never dream of forcing you to. America is all about the choice!!! Don't take mine away.

Also on the issue of school. I am very tollerent, I will teach my children tollerence. I don't think its right for a school system to superceed the morals in which you wish to teach to my child. Again ( I love comparisons) I would never dream of having the school teach your child to worship the devil becuase I did. (example only, I don;'t) I just don't understand why you would attempt to force it on us.

So please continue to fight for your civil liberties, but do it in the right way. Fight for your marriage but not to force others to have their morals tramppled on. This will allow you to have your belief and teach your child what you feel is right and it will afford me the same opportunity with my family.

One more thing, I don't think most peope are affraid of their kids learning about it. We all know they will. I think its the ability to control how its taught while reenforcing our morals. My kid will learn about it, they will never say anything negitive about it, they will learn tollerence but becuase I am their parent and it is my right I will never teach them to accept that it is ok.

Every person is entitled to their own opinion.

I just checked and it looks like it is going to but it can't be confirmed yet. I really hope it passes. I have nothing against Gays either but My questions is this- If you allow gay marriage where does it stop? Will we eventually allow Poligamy? Beastiality? There has to be boundries.

YES Finally the sanctity and holiness of marriage has been restored.

Paul D

When you get married, its a religious thing. The Catholic or Christian religion defines marriage between a man and a woman. Go ahead and be a partnership all you want, but you won't be a marriage in this country.

1) Being gay is not natural.

And real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, air conditioning, tattoos, piercings and silicon breasts...

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay.

In the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior.

People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. Lamps are next.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all;
Hence why women are still property, blacks still can't marry white, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed
And we can't let the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage be destroyed, or when people in the military have contract marriages, just for the extra money.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children.

So therefore, gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our population isn't out of control, our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children
Since, of course, straight parents only raise straight children.

8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion.

In a theoracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

(Did I miss the lesson where Jesus says He hates gays?)

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. Which is exactly why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms.

Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

Re-post this if you believe love makes a marriage
