You’d assume that in these past 7 years more states would have caught on. The idea of saying that marriage can only be between a man and a women is ridiculous. I wrote this quite some time back, during the whole proposition h8 thing, scary how not much has changed.
“”No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” The Constitution Of The United States, Amendment XIV, Section 1 It seems to me that the lawmakers have forgotten this passage when ruling whether or not certain things,… *ahhem* Same sex marriage, are unconstitutional. If you are a citizen this applies to you, but if you are a gay citizen, somehow this is overlooked? Therefore if the right for straight couples to get “married” is protected under the law the same must go for gay couples. On the same topic the term “marriage” is a sacred tradition, one within several religions, on a technicality shouldn’t the “seperation of church and state” (the sacred vs secular) prevent any state from making laws governing this? And if we believe that marriage is a religious tradition wouldn’t it be an infringement of the first amendment to prohibit it?
ok sorry for that little tangent, go on with your lives now people” I probably posted this here too, back when I had like 4 followers.
