[QUOTE="the_taste_of_cigarettes:156935"]regardless of what people think of gays, though, the entire subject has NO place in the constitution. this document was made to preserve rights and make sure that anyone, no matter how fucking lame or stupid we think they are, would be treated equally. It was written by people that were tired of being kicked around for being different. the constitution does NOT establish tax law. the constitution does NOT establish morality. what it does it help provide guidelines of "checks and balances" against the judicial system and the federal government to PREVENT autocratic power. that said, if we edit it and put in things that have no place being in it, what happens next? what prevents free reign of a federal system? if you don't like gay marriage, don't have one. if you think they'll provide tax breaks to the wrong people, you are 100% welcome to think that...write to your senators and fellow congressional folk. It is OK to say you don't want gay marriage because you don't want those tax breaks flying around and have your STATE government create prohibition to it. But changing a NATIONAL, FEDERAL document to BAN it BEYOND all judicial sanctity? Now that, my friend, is just god damn, 100% bigotry. that's fag haters using total abuse of power to show off their homophobia. You don't like gays? Send em out of your state, fine. But telling the WHOLE country that it is "Un-consitutional" goes AGAINST the constitution to say; that limits our freedoms as Americans. Accepting differences and learning to embrace things that other people shy away from is what this country's about. It's what it was founded on. When we make strides to push out the different, we open up ourselves to more hate and obstruction. Think about it...considering the nature of this amendment, adding this type of thing will open the door to...what else? What other things can we go and do that would fit nicely in there? Maybe ban blacks from ever becoming citizens again? Maybe stop the jews from voting? Let's be realistic on this. It's also true that if you allow for gay marriage that - and I know this is shocking - the federal government could simply LIMIT, REDUCE, or OVERRIDE the tax breaks of these marriages (they do it in France -- so it CAN and HAS been done). You see what I'm saying? There's other options, and I know everyone sees this -- it's clear as day. People are just homophobic, and THAT is gay.[/QUOTE]
