g*y Marriage in California?

Question

Whats your point of view or opinion on the g*y Marriage in California.?

Answer 1

IT DOES NOT BOTHER ME AT ALL, if it makes them happy its fine with  me.

Answer 2

Um, anywhere I think it's pretty ******.

Answer 3

I haven't looked at the decision yet, and I have to admit I'm woefully uninformed about the details of California's state Constitution, evem though I live here.  I'm going to want to look at what the majority opinion wrote, and compare it to the relevant parts of the state Constitution.

I support g*y marriage (at the state level... I don't want the federal government involved), but to be honest I would prefer that it not be mandated by the courts, unless there are explicit constitutional arguments for it.  It really should, IMO, come from altering the perceptions of the majority of citizens.

I understand there is already talk about getting an initiative on the ballot to amend the state Constitution to define marriage as one man and one woman.  I'll vote against it if it does get on the ballot, but if such an amendment is passed it would negate the ruling by the California Supreme Court.

Answer 4

g*y marriage is g*y marriage in California or elsewhere. Asking for my point of view or opinion asks me to judge people and their decisions and it's not for me to judge.

Answer 5

A classic case of a liberal court legislating from the bench. They should all be impeached. This is not Constitutional and they know it.

Answer 6

I live in California.  While I do  not agree with their lifestyle, it is their constitutional right be be married just like every other citizen of the United States.  Everyone has the same constitutional rights and that's that.  What I do not agree with is the g*y community forcing us, or trying to force my church to marry them.

Answer 7

As usual, I am worried about the effect this will have on children. It confuses them, and they naturally look for role models.

Answer 8

All for it!

Answer 9

I think I will keep my mouth shut.......

Answer 10

Marriage, no.  Marriage is IDed as a religious institution and should be bound by those rules andd guidelines.  However, being a religious institution it should bear no legal standing.  My feeling is that the legalities present in marriage should be redefined as civil unions.  When you get what we call a marriage license, you have officially entered into a union.  If you would like to get married above and beyond that in accordance with your beliefs, great.  But there should be no legal difference between marriage and not.  This allows the church to maintain the sancity of marriage as the religious institution it was originally defined as, but allow all the legal mumbo jumbo to transfer those rights and privledges that married couples have to couples that don't meet traditional definitions.

Answer 11

Honestly, I'm not really sure. I mean sometimes I'll be completely cool with it, but other times, I won't support it.

Answer 12

Whats is the deal with two people wanting to make their union documented ?  its a legalized way to display there love. It don't bother me one bit, Weather some people don't like the idea of g*y marriage,  thats their way of saying 'we don't want you to be happy' which to me is sad. If they aren't hurting anyone then why not?

Answer 13

It is about time.

This argument has dragged on for far too long.

Homosexuals should have the right to marry....simple.

It doesn't affect my relationship with the lady in my life.

It doesn't make my relationship with her less special.

People who are pissed....get over it!

Answer 14

its ok with me......Im kinda busy running my own life to really worry about it much anyway!
