More gay marriage bans struck down.

Buttsex?!?

There's nothing that gay people do that straights don't do too.

Well, I don't, personally, but I guarantee many of those conservatives who whine about it engage in it with their straight partner.

I'm thinking seriously of reversing my position on gay marriage.

If homosexuals are allowed to marry, they might become happier than they are now. If homosexuals become happier, they're likely to be more productive citizens. As more productive citizens, they'll make more money. More money in circulation leads to inflation. Inflation makes things cost more. When things cost more, I have a harder time purchasing them.

So please, everyone. Campaign against gay marriage so I don't have to pay an outrageous price for that platypus-hide tea cozy I've had my eye on. Don't crush my dreams....

Gays are already richer than the average on account of not having children - unless they're Catholic priests of course.....

Justice Ginsburg does not believe the SC will duck the issue.

http://apnews.excite.com/article/2014090...fe8da.html

The range of cases seems to meet the standard set by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg when she predicted in an interview with The Associated Press in July that the court would not look for ways to avoid ruling on same-sex marriage, as it did for many years on interracial marriage bans.

"I think the court will not do what they did in the old days when they continually ducked the issue of miscegenation," Ginsburg said. "If a case is properly before the court, they will take it."

The speed at which gay marriage has moved through the courts stems from the Supreme Court's decision less than 15 months ago in U.S. v. Windsor to strike down a provision of the federal Defense of Marriage Act that denied a range of tax, health and veterans benefits to legally married gay couples.

Whatever floats your boat. It's not obligatory.

I bet most straight long term partners have tried it at least once, even if not everyone admits to it.

[Exian]

I bet some straight couples have done it without trying.

Hahaha. Oh the replies in this thread.

I don't get the fascination that the religious(and some non-religious mind you) have with preventing people from marrying. Who cares if they were born with the same bits. I wish the religious anti-gay people will focus their attention on other issues going on in the world. You know, like issues that are actually harming people? i.e. Unnecessary police brutality stemmed from racism, bombing entire villages in the name of a higher power, etc.

I am aware that this has all been said time and time again. I just look forward to the day when the sexual orientation and gender identity of humans are a non-issue.

It's a vote-winner.

Oh, they cherry-picked a line out of some stupid old book they claim to read.

They ignored the parts about killing people who work on Sunday or disobedient children because that would be inconvenient.

Xtians are fairly despicable on the despicability scale.

Don't forget not eating shrimp! Christians don't have to follow that law because a crazy old saint who claimed to have seen (read: hallucinated) Jesus said so.
