20. I do
I just think gay 'marriage' is devisive at this time and not necessary to provide legal protection under the law, if and only if gays are equally satisfied with civil unions. As far as I'm concerned gays can go get married today, there are churches that will officiate. I'd like to see huge gay weddings in every park in the U.S., cars parading through the streets all decorated and honking and having a celebration. I say park because it's outside for the world to see. Act as if. Claim your rights.

Gay rights is not about sin. There is no place in our Constitution to provide equal rights based on what one group of people thinks is a sin. My grandmother thought dancing and playing cards was a sin, and I'm talking Go Fish, Crazy 8's, Rummy, any cards. You want her in charge of Civil Rights???

We're smart enough to define harmful illegal behavior without blatant condemnation of people who have never harmed anyone.
