Yeah, I know the guy was being sarcastic, and I also think it was kind of a weak way to try to support the cause (almost up there with stealing lawn signs), but hey, I'm laughing at the fact that you can actually do that. Not only did the guy do that, but they made them the first three. Basically, I'm laughing at the irony. While it is hard to find solid research supporting either side of the cause, one thing is for certain - this is not something that we should write into our constitution.
I've never felt attracted to another man so I have no clue as to what it's like to be/feel gay, but I have many friends who are homosexuals, including my best friend who came out in high school after dating a girl for three years (guy's black too - we always tease him for being the ultra-minority. hehe). These people are looked at by many conservatives as being perverts or sick, twisted people which couldn't be further from the truth. They're some of the nicest people you could know, and plus they're the best to have around when you need fashion tips.
I would never marry another man, nor have any sexual desires for one, but that's just how I am. Because I'm not gay, doesn't mean I should try to change the law to hurt them for their lifestyles. As far as my use of the word bigot earlier, while I still shouldn't have said it, it was spurred by recent experiences - I put a "No on 36" sticker on my car, and trust me, I hate putting stickers on my car. I did it to support my friends - not to seak attention or to try to piss of conservatives. Since I've had it on there I have 1) been called a fag while getting out of my car in a parking lot by a couple of friendly high school students. 2) Was flipped off by a car driving next to me and yelled out by some not-so-pleasant folks for "loving queers" and 3) this made me the most angry - I caught some kid during a smoke break at work trying to peel the sticker off my car. I told him a thing or two but didn't threaten him or anything along those lines. It's okay to disagree with someone, but you don't have to be an a-hole about it (yeah, I'll admit I've been guilty of that more than I'd care to admit)
Before you try to dictate these people's lives, get to know some of them, become their friends and see that a lot of them are really good people. And maybe then you can realize why we should let them have a right as simple as marriage.
And 99blacksesport, you keep using "liberal" like it's a bad thing.
