If it were up to the states and their citizens' votes, would slavery still be in effect in places? [View all]
The thread title's question is purely rhetorical. There is no need to answer.
Civil rights are a federal issue.
Marriage equality is a civil right.
Civil rights can't be upheld or overturned by votes.
A civil right is a civil right or it isn't.
I say it again: Marriage equality is a civil right.
Whether one feels okay about it or not is immaterial.
