all in all looked pretty tame and well behaved...a peaceful protest...that`s the american way...

but all this attacking churches nonsense isn`t helping the cause....results in the gay cause losing whatever high moral ground that they`ve achived...

i have a question,though...gays can already have civil unions, adopt children, will their property, have hospital visitations, form any kind of legal contract they wish as far as i know....
all of that is already legal in california....

so, this is all about those 2 words(marry/marriage)?...

i mean,wtf?....if it`s all about words,i could throw a hissy about the word"gay"....

sometimes you hear the word 'gay' in an old movie and you have to go, "oh:mj03: , that's what it used to mean."...
occasionally, i still use it in the old way....

people giggle when i say, "i feel so gay today.":shrug:


can`t some sort of barter be arranged here?...

lol...pretty creative...



can`t we all just get along?...

i want to emphasize the peaceful,decent nature of this protest....

makes a guy want to do everything he can to accomodate the gay community...:thumb:

there appeared to be no ugly, scrawny old guys with inflated scrotums in the milieu....

equating the institution of slavery and the resulting civil rights struggle to this political movement, i have to think that is a bit of a stretch......and,right or wrong,my guess is that many blacks would be (and are) highly insulted by such a comparison...

maybe that is why they voted it down..

still,looked like a nice rally....the way it`s supposed to happen...

glad i`m not the one having to balance individual rights with community standards with the common good.......

:shrug: ...a toughie..






this is some good stuff...

Thanks for that. (I know, you couldn't resist).

By the way, EVERYONE is free to will property in CA. It's when gays and lesbians have left NO WILL that their partners get nothing.

Under a mask.
Not only should gay marriage be banded,but it should be a crime.Sorry thats my take.
Its unethical,and just plain wrong.

If I had a nickel....

Attacking churches is complex. There is serious anger over churches backing this proposition. If churches want to be official political groups they should be paying taxes. Can't have it both ways.

The impromptu protests the past few weeks have had ups and downs. Obviously people on the NO side are very dissapointed and they have responded with some witty signs (as you displayed) and yes, some down-right anger.

I'm not going to make pro/con arguments for gay marriage, since this is a pretty polarizing issue that most people have made up their minds on... but I love this thought:

When is the last time a straight person FOUGHT for their marriage? Fought for the right to have the chance of a miserable marriage with a 50% failure rate. That's what gay people are trying to get. The same chance at unhappiness as the rest of you.

this represents a radical wing of a party/movement..... no different from some on the right.... we do live in america and evryone has the right to their voice... why does anyone care if two people want to legalize their relationship... who does it hurt... if it does hurt you, WHY ? if a same sex person wants to leave property to their partner, there are laws on the books that allow them to..... if a same sex person wants to give the fruits of their labor, threw health care benefits or any other financial benefit they should be allowed to..... live and let live... what are you afraid of ? why do we waste time on this issue ? What would gay marriage take away from any Americans life ??? I can't think of one way it would hurt mine........ The only financial advantage that will be reaped, are ones earned, just like most of America.... unless you are part of the biggest socialist movement in my lifetime and are part of the bush/cheney bailout; to the people that sold America to the highest bidders. Why do we waste time on this issue ? Where is the moral authority on the far right or left to oppose, gay marriage or anything ? I have been saying for years that the radicals on the left & right have joined against most things American.... What could be more American than two people living in America, under the same protections that Our constitution talks about ??? America is supposed to be about liberty .... diversity.... do we really want to exist in a culture where : we ignore a part of Humanity.... should we disqualify Americans from their rights because of nature ? who should be the voice of the anti- American gay marriage movement ? Maybe that guy in Iran....ahmadinejad is right there on this issue, with his brothers that call themselves christains, on the left & right, here in America.

that's because a large % are over-weight/obese fat fvck rednecks with nothing better to due than swill beer while patting that big fat belly to decide what is right or wrong for others.


just a shame they can't smoke a damn doobie and chill the fvck out while others of their same human kind try to figure their way thru life.
