Yes, why not? They're not harming anyone by getting married!

The state shouldn't be involved in heterosexual marriage either. But we're talking about social institutions here. There are different dynamics to hetero and homo relationships - one being that two males or two females can't create their own biological children together. The other being that there are still many systematic inequalities for women in our society, and marriage as it exists reflects that.
The state has no business creating any new social institution, call it gay marriage or whatever, it's new. Change comes from the ground up, not the top down. The LGBT 'gay marriage' fools are statists pure and simple. Creating 'gay' marriage is social engineering by the state.
That in a nutshell is why I oppose it.
yeah! people should be able to love whoever they want to. i found this thing yesterday, i think it is brilliant.
Ten reasons gay marriage is not legal:
1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.
9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
I think gay and lesbian relationships should be recognized. The Bible condems lust between men and women, but it does no condemn loving relationships between two people. So therefore, gay marriage should be legal. Its about the only liberal standpoint I have.
Sexuality is not obtained until your a teenager in most people. So no one is born homosexual or heterosexual. Later in life, your sexuality begins to appear.
I do not believe gay marriage should be legal.
I'm not close minded and I don't look down on homosexuals as people. But, I believe the Bible shows marriage as the union of a man and woman. Getting married is a religious ceremony. A Christian one. Why should the state decide what the Christian church does? I think a gay couple should be able to be represented in the government but it should not be through the Church.
Well, me and my girlfriend are temporarly married until we can get married properly, which will happen either in UK or Poland, since both countries have gay marriage as a legal thing.
I think that gay marriage banning is discrimination and... sexism. I'm serious. It takes away both men's and women's rights to love another man or woman. I know it's confusing, but it works, trust me, I came to this conclusion several times. It 's like 'You can't marry him because s/he's a wo/man!'
BUT! I'm talking only about civil marriage. Telling the Christian Church or any other religion to change its ways is just as bad as banning gay marriage. Civil marriage however, should be legal because it's swearing to law, not God. Also, it doesn't harm ANYONE so I think it's really unfair.
And if you're interested in history: In Shakespears' times, homosexuality was treated as a normal thing. The same as in the Roman times. Even the word 'Lesbian' comes from the name of a Greek goddess, who was said to be homosexual and her name was Lesbos. Look at Alexander the Great, he was gay! Also, why do countries treat Jews so special just because of the Holocaust, they get discounts and such (I'm not against the Jews at all.). What about homosexuals, didn't we go through enough stuff? We also were the victims in the Holocaust, so for ***** sake just let us live normaly for once.
Of course it should be legal. Every other developed country in the world allows gay marriage, including your neighbours to the north, so why do Americans have such a problem with it? The country has no business telling people who they can and can't marry. I firmly believe that if two people, regardless of age or gender, wish to marry eachother, then that's a basic human right, and no one can stop them.
i think so
i just dont understand why people say no.. its not you or anyone you even know. you dont even know about it happening anyways and you dont have to be their. it has nothing to do with you so why say no.. its like telling someone no you can eat pizza because your gay.. no gay people can eat pizza to so why cant they get married?
for all the super doper religious people are there.. who are probably by the way DIVORCED who say that being gay is a sin.. so what its not your sin.. so let them do it. also DIVORCED is a sin and many people get divorced too. so thats a total fallacy to the sin argument.
one man and one woman is a sin when they get divorced but no one stops that from happening
so why not let gay people get married.. they probably wouldnt ever get divorced anyway so both would be commiting a sin who cares???
people sin everyday.. swearing.. talking about whatever.
soo all you really religious need to come up with a different argument when you say its a sin.
so yes it should be legal :)
why not? every one has a right to be happy so who are we to judge gay or not and take away their right to be happy. to me its wrong. it would be like saying straight people dont have the right to be married. people wouldnt like that, so why judge gay people and tell them no? everyone sais its based on religion but theres no right or wrong religion and there are plenty of religious people who are gay. they deserve to be happy and have a family to.
Gay marriage should be legal. No one chose to be gay, it's just the way you are born. Your brain is either programmed to be attracted to people of the opposite sex, or of the same sex. And if you are attracted to people of the same sex then you should be allowed to marry them.
Yes because no matter who your with , the same or different sex you should have the right to get married
your prefernces should not get in the way of my rights - i forgot who it was but if there happy why not , my cousin's gay and i don't mind it one bit because i know he's happy and if he is with a man to make him happy so be it .
yes it sould be legal married is really like a contract of two people to gaher and if that person died then the other can like get there remain or stuff duh so peolpe who r guy and want to get married shouls be able to have the same right plus the wolf is ****** up anyways so who cares (im not gay)
I think it should be legal. I mean, love is love, right?
I'm having a hard time seeing why people freak out over this issue and scream, ';No! No! NO!!'; And practically have a stroke over it. I mean, what if their true love was the same sex as them? I bet that they'd see things differently then.
Yes because it's not hurting anyone. I was in Gay Straight Alliance at my school last year and the high school I'm going to had the very first Gay Straight Alliance in California. So definitely, I believe in it.
YES.
its a persons life to do with it what they want, why is it that some strange people can marry objects (read a weird story about someone marrying a rollercoaster) but some ppl batter eyelashes at gays.
Its bizzard. There not harming anyone!
Yes because everyone has their own opinions in which gender they like or dislike.. America is too biased...being straight is right being gay is wrong..i think gay marriage should be legal you cant control love...so i support gays and gay marriage

Oh yes! Men getting married has no effect on other people so why should the USA make it illegal, I think it should also be legal in all 10 provinces and territories in Canada too, because it is just not anything bad.
Gay marriage should be legal because nobody chooses to be gay or straight (though some refuse to believe that) there's a part of your brain that decides that for you.
Yes! If someone loves a person it shouldn't matter what gender they are. How would you feel if you were told that you couldn't marry the person you love just because they were the same sex as you?
i absotutely think that gay marriage should be legalized...not just in the US tho. and i think gay love is the sweetest kind of love around.
I think so. What happened to, ';This is a free country'; %26amp; ';Everyone is treated equally'; ? Well that can be thrown down the drain in that case because that phrase is an AUTOMATIC FALSE.
It is legal where I come from.
England :]
(I think it is anyway!?)
And yes, as I've grown up with gay marriage being ok, I think it should be legal in the USA.
yes. its not fair that people that are straight and not in love can get married, but gays that are in love can't get married.
I believe that everyone should have the right to marry who they want, without it becoming a legal affair. It should be legal WORLD WIDE
I think it should be legal, you can't control love.
Yes.
People's sexual preference is of no concern to the government.
Equal rights please...this is 2009 right?
shameful.
People should be able to like whoever the hell they please without getting judged for it.
i think so. i think it would be fair for people who are gay to get married.
i think people should be able to d what they want turn it around what if males and female could not get married how would you feel
Yes, gay marriage should be legal.
Nope, marriage should be between a man and a woman. If we start letting everyone get married, then marriage is no longer as sacred of a ceremony as it once was.
