Well, I'm taking a speech class and part of that is that I'm going to have to make a persuasive speech. So, I'm going to make a speech for something I already believe in: same sex marriage.
Thing is, from my perspective, same sex marriage is a no brainer. When you're queer, it's kinda hard to question your own rights. However, if I'm going to make an effective, persuasive speech, I would need to address the concerns of people who aren't already queer who are specifically homophobic.
Any suggestions on what those concerns are and how to address them?
You might want to quote that godless piece of trash that is the United States' Constitution.
Specifically, go to the 14th Amendment, Section 1, very last sentence where it says "equal protection". This section forbids the creation of second class citizens. You can't constitutionally grant a set of privileges to one group and then deny them to another.
Now my preferred solution would be to get rid of the Constitution. Christianity and democracy are enemies.
