Gay Marriage!

Same-sex marriage (also called gay marriage) is a legally or socially recognized marriage between two persons of the same biological sex or social gender. Same-sex marriage is a civil rights, political, social, moral, and religious issue in many nations. The conflicts arise over whether same-sex couples should be allowed to enter into marriage, be required to use a different status, or not have any such rights. A related issue is whether the term "marriage" should be applied.
         Kristin M. Perry v. Arnold Schwarzenegger: A federal judge in San Francisco struck down California’s voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage, handing a temporary victory to gay rights advocates in a legal battle that seems all but certain to be settled by the Supreme Court. 
 
Current Event: Gay Public High School Opens!
The first stand-alone public high school for homosexuals in New York City will open this fall with 100 "gay" students. According to a report in the New York Post, the new Harvey Milk High School currently is undergoing a $3.2 million publicly funded renovation. The homosexuals-only program has operated with just two classrooms for two decades, but now is expanding.



                                                             I support gay marriage! I don't believe that it is fair for someone to judge another person for what they believe in, or limit that person to what they can do about their beliefs. Regardless of their sexes, if they love each other than that's all that matters. Would it be okay to you if people had to vote on whether or not you could marry your lover? I have gay friends and they are great people who don't deserve that :)

  1. I agree that we should not deny people their right to pursuit of happiness because of their preference. They are not harming anyone by doing this. So I support gay marriage. I think that America should if we claim to be the land of the free!
