Gay Marriage Debate - Winston-Salem, NC

Why can't gays and lesbian be given the opportunity to be just as miserable as straight couples?

In history, they used to look at a certain roman emperor and say, Ew, he's weird.. how can he only like women and not men. It is not unnatural for anything in nature to love deeply another of the same sex. Also by continuing to deny gays marriage rights, you take away their humanity, and as a country, you take away the idea of freedom. Many European COUNTRIES not parts of countries, but the entire nation, have legalized gay marriage. Why can't the United States?

Can anyone actually give an honest reason why it shouldn't be allowed? In the words of a friend, "If it's a choice, try and choose it. Can you? No? Huh, that doesn't seem much like a choice..." It's not "unnatural" or "against the word of god." If you actually read the bible, you'd know that GOD is supposed to judge, not you. Those who judge others are effectively posing as "god" in order to sentence their fellow men to a living hell, often using God as their reason when this is completely wrong!

I want to be able to grow up and, whether I marry a man or woman, honor them with our marriage. I want the next generation to know that being gay, lesbian, trans, bi, pan, etc., isn't bad. We all deserve love and the basic right to marry! Sorry that us fags want to have a job, a house, a lasting marriage, and adopt the beautiful children others leave out like wet-lock garbage. Sorry, until we have this right, America isn't living up to it's standards and potential. Marriage equality isn't really a decree or a law, it's a human right.

People are people, no matter who they love, let them have the same opportunities

Love's love. Would their marriage take anything away from you? No. So leave em to it.

Love is love. Why does it have to be straight couples only...that's just stupid.

Equal Rights.

Marriage is a right. It says in our Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal. Doesn't that mean we all get the same rights?

EVERYONE should be equal within reason. If its not harming or hindering others.

What's wrong with marrying someone of your same gender?

indifferent on the topic; whatever completes your lifestyle!¯\_(ツ)

marriage is between two people who love each other. gender doesn't matter.

I support marriage. Period.

Because marriage is a human right.

I wanna be able to marry a woman

Love who you want to love, not who society tells you to love, plain and simple.

Marriage is a sacred thing. Thats why I've had so many of them.

Equal rights for everyone.

they are people to. maybe black people should be slaves again if gays can not get married
