We don't live in a democracy, thank god, we live in a constitutional republic.Are you actually saying you want a law that blocks blind people from getting married? WTF is wrong with you?
How is stopping gays from getting married in a loving relationship between two consenting adults, the same as blind drivers heading out onto highways and slaughtering people?
Being bigoted against blacks is the same as being bigoted against gays. The only reason you got away with it in both cases was that they were minority groups that jerks like you could pick on.
I said: is it discrimination to deny blind people the right to drive cars? is your reading comprehension damaged by too much cheap vodka last night?
I am not bigoted against gays, I want gays to have a way to legally commit to each other in such a way that gives them the same rights as married couples. But a gay union is not a marriage any more than a legal union of same sex siblings is a marriage.
So you were not comparing gays to blind people, you were comparing marriage licences to driving licenses? You know the privilege of driving on public roads is not the same as the right to life and marriage right?
You know a civil union is not a marriage right?
So you admit that its all about the word and not about equality, rights, discrimination, or anything else. Its about using govt to force societal change to fit your minority views.
and you call that democracy?????
No, civil union is not the same as marriage. What makes you think civil union means marriage? There are thousands of different laws regarding marriage. Civil unions is not the same as marriage, because those thousands of laws regarding marriage do not apply.
The only government force that's been going on around here is majority groups pissing on minorities. Protecting a minority from a bully is not force, it's defense. Your argument is akin to saying a cop stopping a rape is force cause the rapist was stronger than his victim, so the victim deserved it.
the laws defining gay civil unions and man/woman marriage should be exactly the same, convey the same rights, and be recognized as equal in every way.
But thats not what you want is it?
Exactly the same would either be civil unions regardless of sexual orientation or marriage regardless of sexual orientation.
But thats not what you want- is it?
