unfortunately, I believe the voters will ban it.

1. Yes, and to win, the Democrat running for Senate will support it.

I'm afraid that this is the case. I would prefer a Chris John to the GOPer though. Glad I'm on California...

2. Good. A majority should vote on whether a minority's human rights

are accepted or not.

Yes, that was sarcasm.

[sui generis]

3. I can't think of a thing that

impacts the lives of those gladyskravitz asswipes less then what two complete strangers are doing to protect their mutual assets, property and family.

I am really starting to become deeply intolerant of my fellow Americans who think that I shouldn't get the same legal protections as they do merely because I am not heterosexual. I'm not asking for their permission to live my life.

5. Agreed...

And well said.

6. s/g

what the fuck does the public vote have to do w/ mandating ANY couple's love for 1 another?

i'm so demoralized by this issue. personally, aint none of my damn biz who you share board, bed, & insurance w/.


simply outrageous.

edit: oops, my bad. made an assumption about your lifestyle, quite possibly in error. comment still applies if you're hetero: that isn't any1's business, either.

but hope i haven't upset you, didn't mean to personalize the issues. are we cool?

7. At first i was actually impressed that we'd be allowed to vote

that they'd even give our opinions that much respect but why should we be voting about whether or not to allow OTHERS to have equal protections under the law (we being non-homosexuals)...it all comes down to separation of church and state...and People down here don't seem to understand that!
