mrpyromania Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I was listing to the radio this morning and CBC(provincal news station)said that same-sex marragies were legalized in Massachusets. There was couples lined out the door at 12:00 AM last night,waiting for the offical annoucment. Also,some cites elsewhere were handing out same-sex marragie certifictes unsatcinedly. But there might be still a chance that theyt might re-ammend that constution saying theyt can't. Now I'm not sure this information is 100% accurate. What do you think?

Peregrine Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 It's accurate and long overdue. It's about time we started basing our laws on fairness and equality instead of some fanatic's imaginary friend and book of myths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunmer_jediknight Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 in my opinon america is soppose to be the land of free choice. But seeing how much of a religious freak Bush is he is going to ignore what history has shown us about what happens when a group of peoples has their freedome challenged. I really don't care if gay couples marry and as far as I'm concerned thay should have the same leagal rights as straight couples do ( and the same leagal headachs). so ther are my two cents worth.

Maquissar Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Homosexual marriages are immoral because God created us to be heterosexualand... ok, ok, I was just kidding :)I personally am heterosexual, but I am happy that homosexual marriages havebeen legalised. My favourite motto has always been the Wiccan An ye harmnone, do what ye will, and people who love each other and get married -regardless of gender - cause harm to no one.

vandorssen Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 It is rather ironic that the Republican party and conservatives in general are constantly preaching that we need less government in out lives while at the same time they demand federal laws and restrictions on abortion and marriage. My state of Minnesota, which is rather progressive in most areas, has recently proposed a state constitutional amendment that says in rather innocuous terms “….Marriage is defined as the legal and spiritual joining of one man and one woman…” which effectively would make homosexual marriages not just illegal, but unconstitutional. How is that for the government staying out of the peoples business!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faust870 Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 All I can say... is "Its about bloody time"... There is nothing with two people of the same sex getting married, they already live together and all... so whats the big deal about a peice of paper sayings they are married...

Malchik Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Well I suppose it also means that they can now legally get divorced, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiseasedPunk Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Eventually it will be legal to mary farm animals and inatimate objects. But seriously, i really don't give a flying blargh who people want to mary :P. As long as they don't tell me im out of line, politically incorrect, or an idiot for wanting to remain straight. Or try and make passes at me ><, been done before and its like the nastiest feeling in the world. It was all i could do to keep from smacking the guy in the nose.
