I am not a fan of gays, but I see no reason that the government should ban their right to marry. It is very, very, Un-American!
America is the land of the free, where everyone has the right to practice anything within the scope of the law. Seeing that being gay is perfectly legal, and should always be, considering the government has no right to decide what is moral and what is not, they then have no right to make gay marriage illegal.
Add to that the fact that marriage licenses are a power that is not granted to the federal government by our Consitution, and I see no reason why this is even an issue. Granted, theya re attempting to bypass thislast issue by making it an amendment, but I do not see any reason to change our Consitution based on the idea that gay marriage is "unnatural".
First of all, as stated earlier, the government has no right to control our moral decisions. And if they tried to amend the constitution to change that, America would crumble. That would turn our lovely democratic republic into a totalitarian government, in which the could control everything we do. This amendment would lead us down a slippery slope to the destruction of everything that this great country stands for.
Remeber folks, this is all coming from a hateful bigot who has time and time again bashed gaywads unashamedly. This is not a moral issue, as Bush is trying to portray. It is a political and governmental issue that seeks to undermine the principles that our Founding Fathers established. If this freedom is taken away from the homos, what is to stop the government from taking away more freedoms from us. Hell, the Patriot Act already stripped us of many freedoms that we once took for granted. I'm telling you folks, this is a dangerous slippery slope!
