And far fewer than 4% of our population is in the military. We're not talking about the UCMJ here. We're talking about why American citizens who have committed no crime, are consenting adults and pay their taxes, why should those people be denied access to the benefits, protections and ease of access that the marriage license affords. What could be the reason gay people are actively discriminated against by legislation.DOMA, DADT for starters. How about applying for a marriage license? I know you know this. What's your point?Name the laws that are denying "homosexuals" rights.
Heterosexuals have their behaviors limited in the military also. If you are in the military, your rights are not the same as a civilian's rights. Look it up.

What I find incredibly sickening is the constant comparison of gay special rights to the struggle for civil rights that the black community fought so hard for.
It is sickening to compare parades where men engage in sexual activities in public, so obscene here in Atlanta parents simply avoided the city and the police just look the other way, to the marches in Selma and police releasing attack dogs.
But that is the mentality of the left, and the black community by and large resents that comparison. The gays are beginning to turn on the black community as well, very resentful for their roll in preventing homosexual supposed 'marriage' in California of all places LOL.

Supreme Court disagrees. Only a matter of time.
Not privileges, special rights. The same civil rights as everyone isn't good enough.
Youre both wrong again, and as usual.
In Romer the Court rejected the inane argument that ensuring homosexuals equal access and protection of the law per the 14th Amendment does not constitute special rights:
You have already displayed you unwillingness to see the biological difference between men and women. And you say I am not with science. You have already denied there are emotional and personality characteristics that are predominate in each gender. You find the studies that only back your "emotional needs" without looking at the other point of view.
I have no problem with homosexuals doing a legal arrangement if it is supported by the country. I do have a problem with homosexuals "re-defining" words to push a political agenda, and "mock" traditional marriage.
As far as "bigotry" goes, honey that door swings both ways, and your side is probably more bigoted than those that you "accuse" (falsely, I might add) of being bigots to silence them and their points of view.
I have been accused of that before, and I will ask you what I asked them without getting a rational response: How are my views backwards? How is my way of life hurting anyone? Can you explain a better way to live?
Even your avatar is bigoted; Justice is suposed to be impartial. How can some one judge fairly when in the embrace of another. You might think it was convenient to show two women statues, but there is a "bigoted" message there too. Maybe you will consider that?
There are three co-equal branches of our federal government. That's one of the reasons our Republic is so successful.Not privileges, special rights. The same civil rights as everyone isn't good enough.

Who cares what the hacks on the Supreme Court ruled? They are wrong. Any law that even mentions homosexuals is a special privilege for people based on their behavior. The Constitution does not offer protection to behaviors. The government routinely discriminates against behavior, and private citizens do it as well.
Kennedy's decision absurd and idiotic.
Why is Gay rights a Liberal issue? Shouldn't the equal rights of every American citizen be an issue of bi-partisan, National interest?MAY have been?
It seems there is a politicization of scholarship in support of gays and other liberal causes - too many liberal scholars trying to make their political points by employing "presentism" - ie, trying to shoehorn ancient practices in to something they weren't.
One would hope that personal prejudices would never interfere with equality before the law.
If you can provide one valid constitutional reason some American citizens, who have committed no crime, pay their taxes, and live sober responsible lives should be regarded as second class citizens and barred from the protections and benefits of the law, I would be interested in learning about it.

MAY have been more than just Nero, but Nero DID...twice.
Are you holding "him" up as a good example for why homosexuals should be able to change the definition of marriage?
Gallup Poll Majority of Americans Continue to Oppose Gay Marriage
A Rasmussen Reports survey of 1,000 Likely Voters found that just 32% believe the gay and lesbian couples who received marriage licenses recently in San Francisco are "legally married." Sixty-one percent (61%) disagree, while 7% are not sure. The survey also found that 66% of Americans oppose the decision of San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom to issue marriage licenses for gay and lesbian couples. Only 24% favor that decision. Just 32% Consider SF Marriage Legal - Rasmussen Reports
30% huh?
Its as if the Framers had you in mind when they drafted the Constitution.
Fortunately the rule of law trumps your ignorance and the ignorance you represent.
Yes I'm sure the founding fathers had the intention of allowing homosexual marriage. They had me in mind.
Tell me where in the Constitution you are using to justifying forcing states to allow homosexual marriage?
So you just made up that 30% right?Google is trying to pretend center, and the right of and left of center, are not mainstream.
Google is trying to pretend her little corner of the universe in the far Righty Extremist Cultural Fascist nook is mainstream.
It's not, Google, and you are blathering on.
YOU ARE A LAIR

I did nothing of the sort. Of course men and women are different biologically. So what?
That in no way proves that gays and lesbians can't have a relationship that is just as loving, just as deep and just as meaningful as heterosexuals couples.
We love our partners just as profoundly and with just as much passion as heterosexuals love theirs.
You have done nothing other than prove the OP's point, that opposition to legal marriage has no basis other than ignorance and bigotry.
I have no problem with homosexuals doing a legal arrangement if it is supported by the country. I do have a problem with homosexuals "re-defining" words to push a political agenda, and "mock" traditional marriage.
If we had waited for the country to approve of interracial marriage, blacks would not have been allowed to marry whites until 1992. Marriage was "redefined" by "activist judges" to "push a political agenda" in 1967. Did you have a problem with that, honey?
We are all bigoted about something. I'm very bigoted against the LA Dogers, but I don't want to see rights taken away from the team because of my prejudice against them. I feel the same way about people that pick their nose in public. I think the practice is disgusting, but I don't support outlawing the behavior or denying them the fundamental right to legally marry.
I have been accused of that before, and I will ask you what I asked them without getting a rational response: How are my views backwards? How is my way of life hurting anyone? Can you explain a better way to live?
You've been called a bigot before and that doesn't tell you something? A better way to live than as what, as a bigot? Yeah, there are plenty of better ways to live than as a bigot. Try living as someone who is tolerant of differences and believes that this is a country where we treat all people equally regardless of race, creed, gender, sexual orientation or religion. Try living as someone who upholds American values and principals.
Just out of curiosity, do you even know anyone gay or lesbian?
Even your avatar is bigoted; Justice is suposed to be impartial. How can some one judge fairly when in the embrace of another. You might think it was convenient to show two women statues, but there is a "bigoted" message there too. Maybe you will consider that?
Whose rights does my avatar wish to deny? Judges have to be impartial, not sexless. My avatar represents the close relationship that liberty and justice must maintain. Does it get you a little hot?
You claim marriage laws are being changed to accommodate "same sex" marriages. Gee! I wonder what "homosexual" means?And far fewer than 4% of our population is in the military.

There is no law prohibiting homosexuals from being married as the majority of the population is. They want "special rights" (read above the law). Apparently where the law is being changed, it is for "same sex", no mention of homosexual (I thought this was all about equality). It is about scamming the system and mocking traditional marriage.
Yes, nothing like watching two fakes, going at it!
