If we treat each other the "same right now", and "always have" then why are there laws that define protected classes? Or better yet why is the gay community wanting to receive protected class states? Given that the majority is in support of gay marriage, (60% to 70% was the last I read) who do you need protection from?
People who are in the 30% to 40%? which the number its self is not showing any powered dynamic on there part. All is in favor of the gay community.
Because public polls are not the same as election results. Who would have thought people would ever say one thing in public and effectuate another thing in private.
But if a society is treating its people good and people know what is right and what is wrong, elections or voting for that matter should not the issue.
So, what you are saying is that people say we are equal but their actions are not so. But most of the Americans that are saying this are decent Americans, supporters of the gay community and its members that are saying that they treat all equally and are for equality. What is the likelihood that they will vote against if their clam? True there numbers do not equal polls but I would hope one stands by their own convictions. O are you saying that this pro majority is lying to itself and the people?
Because if a lager majority of people are in support of them, it really make no sense why the gay community is seeking a protected class statues. It is only a small group of people are or wish to not treat them equally.
So I am not seeing the need to fight for that statues when the "power" is in your favor? Its like getting car insurances when it is not required because the government will cover every thing. The step seems unnecessary so to know why they want it, is being asked
