Gay Marriage Debate - Arvada, CO

Marriage is defined as one woman and one man... When you have to place the word "gay" in front of marriage, its re-defining the meaning.

Marriage is defined as a committed relationship between consenting adults.

Equality for all.

You love who you love. It is said in our rights we have the right to "THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS", and by taking away gay marriages, you're taking away their rights. Which crosses the Constitution.

Marriage is defined as one man and one woman in federal law as well as many states.

A gay relationship is not the same is a man and woman relationship and needs to have a different definition. If it is not a different type of relationship then why do we have to define it as different. "GAY" marriage?

So a man who falls in love with his son is okay? How about a mother who falls in love with her 16 year old son? Should a brother who loves his brother marry?

Our laws state marriage is between one man and one woman. And gays have been doing what they are doing, and in fact they flourish in America.

Gays have been getting married for years WITHOUT government recognition... Why is it now that you need government to sanction"GAY" marriage.

I support this! Anyone should be able to get married to anyone they choose! Its your choice and noone can tell you no! You go boy!

They already do... So why then, do they need the state to recognize their union as marriage?

cause I'm gay.

Should a 20 year old daughter marry her 50 year old dad? What about a 20 year old brother marry his 18 year old sister?

Relationships have definition for a reason when if you say, "anyone should be able to marry whom ever they want" That sure does skew some lines doesn't it?

tO EACH THEIR OWN

Interracial marriage was once outlawed. Putting black/white is front of marriage defined it's meaning.

You have quite a fantasy. Homosexual couples are not inbreds.

Who says,“The black woman is marrying that white guy”? Sorry you’re way off on this.

I relationship between a man and a woman is very DIFFERENT from that of a man and a man or woman and a woman… The mental, emotional and especially physical differences go so far beyond the color of ones skin.

I think you need to step back and think about that.

I did not say that... However you just did. Interesting.

Did you even read what I was responding to?

What happened to liberty and justice for all? Do you value equality? Do you value and treat every being as one who exists and is deserving of respect? I do. That's why I support gay marriage.

Marriage is marriage.
