North Carolina BAN ON GAY MARRIAGE......(LGBT) Lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender movement.... if "straights" disagree, will "LGBT-ers" dislike them?

...but they better get over it quick lol, they're running out of states to like!

Grace to you, Glory to God!

Good for North Carolina!

First let me say...I am NOT religious, and personally, I don't care what people do behind CLOSED doors....that said, even though I have a gay brother, and a lesbian cousin, the whole gay thing makes me gross out a bit and I would rather not see it in public...but people spitting is gross too, but I deal with it. That being said....I believe that gay people and non religious people should have civil unions...that hold as much legal weight as marriage. however, have some dang respect for the religious people and stop cramming the gay marriage down their throats. They believe, right or wrong that marriage is between a man and a woman, AND homosexuality is a sin according to their bible...so a legal union between same sex couple should be done outside of the church and be given a different name. EVERYONE should be respected in this situation. Want separation between church and state? Then simply give the gay people equal rights and let the bible thumpers keep their marriage sanctity. Good grief.....so many crybabies crying about people violating their rights while they stomp all over someone else's....

my pictures go to different pages for some reason....peculiar. So i deleted it.)

Personally, I like to sit in the middle of the bus in the isle....safer. And this has nothing to do with the topic. It is about everyone wanting to cram their beliefs down other peoples throats and wanting tolerance, while cry-babying that you don't want it done to you and not being tolerant yourself. Ditch hypocrisy.

Your making the assumption that marriage is a institution of the Church. It's not. It's a institution of society. In places where Christians never were there was marriage. Marriage certificates come from the state, the government, not the pastor. The pastor's power to marry you or anyone else comes from the state, not his church. It's why they say "the power vested in me by the (insert state name)" and not "God" or "the Church". Also Civil Unions were designed long before the Gay rigths issue and were designed to be less then a marriage for people who did not want the binding contract that marriage is. Now people want to make it the same as marriage which is assine. So now our laws books have to have two seperate instituitions and laws for them, these two institutions are exactly the same except for a matter of sexual orientation? Thats moronic and redundant.

the few that I have met in my life really did not care about the straights around them

Bullies always hate not getting their way. They don't stop at no. Do you know a bully that just stopped pushing people around? I don't.

What, are you saying that the so-called "LGBT-ers" are the bullies here?

Yes,I knew a few myself and they were lovely.

i don't really see why same sex marriages are a big deal, people like who they like. so just legalize it in all states and get over it already.

NC is not lacking in love, its wisdom and knowledge. So LGBT will educate them through civil rights actions through the courts. The 14th amendment recognizes all citizens regardless of their orientation, States are specifically forbidden through it to create laws that would deny equal protection and representation of the laws, this includes laws that govern "marriage". We'll see.

Hope the Democrats have a 'fun' convention in NC!

Of course they will dislike those states....JOMO

c. Unsure or other.

I'm not really all that concerned about what other people do in a private situation. None of my business. I agree that the individual states should decide these types of issues and the federal government should stay out of it.

Local laws super suceed their rulling. marrige isnt a business convetion of who wants to inhertis each other sex parties money. gay people have the right to finacial inherit every thing to each other. marrige is not a badge or a certificate of emotion. love and money always mixes.

mom and dad created you and govermental experiments is a cruel child protexted service joke, when the child is older and realizes they were born form straight sex wich is gods virvin way to remind us were we come from.

more importantaly children with emotional problems killing th

Why would a group like another group that shows prejudice toward them and denies ten the same rights that heterosexuals get?

i guess one day we might be around to witness youngsters getting married as the marriage laws in the United States begin to change.....it will also change the BURKA laws, as people begin to "whine" next about discrimination in marriages!!! Wont it be EXCITING! the little LGBT Lesbian, gay and transgender kids wearing burkas and getting married in their early 8-10 ages? wow.....it really will be something!

Not sure how changing the definition of marriage from 'a male and female of consenting age' to 'two adults of consenting age' will cause any of that....

sure it will. because once you start changing peoples ideas of what marriage should be, then most likely....(but maybe your right it may not happen) religious groups will start to change the ages for your underage daughter or son to get, "married" into their lesbian, gay, transgender, or NEW "non-gender" lifestyles.....and honestly, that concerns me.....

Those are the same arguments that were made about inter-racial marriage though. When it was against the laws in most states, changing it bought forth the same arguments: "If you allow different races to marry, then where does it stop? Kids, multiple spouses, animals... Marriage is what it is and should not be changed because a few want to." Same thing now. Allowing one consenting adult to marry another consenting adult doesn't mean society will be okay with kids marrying or people marrying pets. It just means all adults will be able to marry to the adult they fall in love with and wish to commit to.

What rights arent they receiving ed?

Rights to visit tying partners, death benefits, health benefits, gov. benefits, laws that protect spouses if someone dies with no will, property transfers, tax filing, etc. Heck, even protection in cases of divorce. If a non-married couple splits after 20 years together where open stayed home and raised kids and took care of the home, that spouse has no legal right to alimony, etc. right now. In many states, even one parent will lose custodial rights if the other was a birth parent, despite the child being raised as their own. Why? They weren't married. If a couple wants to take the risks and make the commitments, they should enjoy the same rights and privileges.

LOL FIrst, the question was if gays will like the state(s) that bans their right to marry, not will gays like straight people, lol. Secondly, you think gays turn straight people gay? LOL That they 'get new blood to join their ranks'? Hysterical.

Just go to a state that supports the lifestyle, California or New York will be fine, leave the rest of us alone.

Yeah, so can dogs. That doesn't mean anyone's doing it. Seriously, it's not a conspiracy, I swear.

i agree. most straights arent exactly converting to LGBT lifestyle (lesbian, gay, transgender, bi-sexual)..... but theyre changing or attempting to change the marriage laws....should be interesting about 20 years from now when the next issue is about Burka laws and the little LGBT kids whining about age "discrimination"....... Those, "non-gender people are the BEST!!!! always giving law makers something NEW to think about! 2012

yeah, right now thats what the lobbyists do, or have done with the NEW president.... lobbied for CHANGE.....the new "golden bay" cigarettes.....hey, maybe they will ONLY change just the B and the G.......Bolden Gay.

Unnatural? How is a person born from a woman unnatural?

So, a man having anal with a woman is unnatural? Oh please.

Ok, but it's not wrong if other people want to do so.
