Gender Equality in Marriage Contracts: Geographical Disparities

One thing I don't get is why it was any of the Supreme court's business whether some jurisdictions wanted to recognise marriage as between people of the same race only. Yes, I get it, it's "unconstitutional" and all that, but if you really think about it, shouldn't the individual states, and by extension, people, be allowed to create their own rules regarding this sort of thing?

 

The supreme court has nothing to do with believing gay marriage being a thing. Gay couples marrying makes gay marriage a thing. No matter how hard you try to wish it away....it's a thing

 

but reality shows that "gay marriage" is a thing. As tens of thousands of gay marriages exist in the US.

I do. And my faculties reflect reality.

 

I suggest you sue the govt to get it overturned. Good luck!

 

they are free to create any rule they wish, as long as it doesn't violate the US constitution. Racial bans, and same sex bans violate the 14th amendment, so they had to be struck down.

 

"Gay marriage" is a "thing" only to the gays and their supporters. I do not consider their union legitimate. Nor will I call one of them "the husband" and the other "the wife". Yes the laws are on their side, but so what? To me they will always be two freaks who somehow managed to get the laws behind them.

 

Maybe the Constitution is the one that needs to be struck down.

 

nope. it's a thing to you to. something doesn't cease to exist, just because you don't like it.

which has no relevance to it's legitimacy, or existence.

nobody cares what you call them or don't call them.

well, it quite clearly shows your argument is nonsense.

which has no relevance to their existence. nobody cares what you consider them.

 

Well...that ought show em...hahahaha

Your bigotry duly noted

 

yes, this seems to be the stance of the American right wing. fortunately, American patriots won't let you.

 

But I didn't say that it doesn't exist. I said it's not legitimate. And mind you, I am not the only one who thinks this way. But of course, I know you will just say "so what" like you have done for so many times. You do not take the opposite side's view into consideration.

Ultimately, I acknowledge that my own personal feelings and opinions on this gay marriage thing will not stem the dark tide, and most likely gays will continue to get married. But I just want to point out that you should not automatically discount people's opinions and thoughts just because you disagree with them. It's like I said, I am not the only one who feels that gay marriage is illegitimate.

 

This is rich. I think that if anyone, the leftists are the ones who want the Constitution dismantled.

 

We can when it's born out of bigotry.

 

Not liking gays is normal. People who love, support, and champion for gays are the abnormal ones.

 

Why?

Also, what is wrong with bigotry?

 

nope. you said gay marriage isn't a "thing". That is false. And what you consider legitimate, is meaningless. Gay marriage is as legitimate as straight marraige.

of course not. but you are the extreme minority. And what you think has no bearing on reality.

why would I? it's contrary to reality.

I don't discount your opinions. I'm working to stomp them out of existence. And it's working, as those who share it are an extreme fringe minority today.

 

the left isn't the one trying to take your right to marriage away, lol.

 

actually supporters of gay rights are the majority in the US, and most of the developed world.

 

Why do you think it's 'normal'? What is it that gay people have done that has you not liking them?

 

In a word it's....ignorant. You have no rational reason to hate a group of people who've never done anything wrong to you or your loved ones.

 

Do you know what a figure of speech is? When I said it wasn't a "thing", I meant that I did not consider it legitimate. I do not literally mean that it's not happening. I acknowledge that gay marriages are happening. Much to the delight of abnormal people like you.

I wouldnt call it "extreme" minority. There are still quite a few people who think like me. But yes I acknowledge that younger people tend to accept it. It's just one sign that the leftist indoctrination in US is working.

Why do you think so?

How so? Note if I had said, "gay marriages aren't happening" then it would indeed be contrary to reality. But that's not what I said. I said that I do not consider gay marriage to be legitimate. So kindly tell me in what ways this is "contrary to reality".

I see that you do your level best to stifle the opposing view.

Why do you feel so justified in "stomping my views out of existence" anyway? Is it because you cannot handle it when people hold views you don't like?

 

I would not say I dislike gays. Well maybe, a little bit. But this isn't the "main thing". Anyway, my point is that I regard gays to be abnormal.

Why is other people being (supposedly!) ignorant any of your business?

 

Ah yes, the ole 'indoctrination' bulls**t...hahahaha. No, it's called live and let live.
A gay couple marrying doesn't affect your life one bit. So it begs the question...why does it bother you so much?

 

If it was JUST ignorance I wouldn't care. But when that ignorance tries to prevent a certain group from the rights the rest of us get to enjoy then it's a problem.

 

and as I keep pointing out, you are in the minority. you are the abnormal one, lol.

nope. it's the extreme minority.

uh, because same sex marriage is occurring, and is not going anywhere in this country.

you said it wasn't a thing, in addition to not legitimate. both of those statements are incorrect. they are a thing, and they are legitimate.

of anti freedom bigots? of course. It's every americans patriotic duty to do so.

because they are un-American, and anti freedom.

no. I can't handle backwards anti American anti freedom people.
