Participant“So what do you think Mark Holmes?”
Rustico; well, it affects me. It’s not an abstract idea.

ParticipantFrom the Yahoo coverage:
Outside the courthouse, gay marriage supporters cried and cheered as the news spread.
Jeanie Rizzo, one of the plaintiffs, called Pali Cooper, her partner of 19 years, and asked, “Pali, will you marry me?”
“This is a very historic day. This is just such freedom for us,” Rizzo said. “This is a message that says all of us are entitled to human dignity.”
In the Castro, historically a center of the gay community in San Francisco, Tim Oviatt started crying while watching the news on TV.
“I’ve been waiting for this all my life,” he said. “This is a life-affirming moment.”
End quote.
On the other side of the aisle, we have people saying “it disgusts” them, or “bothers” them, but never illustrating how it AFFECTS them. The quote above shows the profound effect this has on gays and lesbians, yet people will vote for a state constitutional ban on gay marriage in November on something that will have NO effect on THEIR life, but will take away a right of another. This is a very sad commentary on the people of the state of California. History and our descendants will not cast a kind eye back on us.

ParticipantPretty common attitude. So, my question is, have you or will you ask your gay friends how they feel about you voting against their right to marry? And given the unlikely possibility that the state or federal government will strike down the use of the word marriage in its civil marriage laws, do you see any time you will support gay marriage?
