While I'm not going to shoot every single person who thinks Prop 8 is good, I think that while I'm not gay, and I would never dream of being gay, homosexuals should be allowed to do whatever they want withing the limits of the law. If they want to get married, let them (though I think it's not...natural). Even if you're not gay/don't like gay people, they exist, and it's not right to treat them as second-class citizens. Proposition 8 is an evil way to stop people from doing what they want: to love. Thanks a lot, you conservatives. So true.

I know this is old news but it still it shocks me. I really believe that such situations are created, no to solve a problem, but to create one. Find a subject that will stir emotions and when you need to distract everyones attention, throw it out there. Whilst the people's attention is focused elsewhere politians can get away with murder.

Let me make it clear, I believe that people can love who ever they want to. They should should also be granted the same rights that other married people have. But when two homosexuals want to have a religious ceremony(like a wedding) that is denounced by the church, then government shouldn't force churches to have give homosexuals those ceremonies. That is exactly what Prop. 8 would have done and that right there is unconstitutional by having the government force the churches to perform marriages to homosexuals. Now I don't live in California but correct me if I'm wrong that California all ready has a law dealing with civil unions that grant couples all the rights married people have, but not having done through the churches? I believe this is the appropriate way to handle this not just with homosexuals, but any non religious person. It doesn't make since to me why homosexuals and any other person that doesn't like religion would want to have a weeding when they know the churches don't approve it. Anyways, just to let you know I still think your the best person over at cnet and if you leave then there is no point for me to watch cnet tv any more.

This legal binding would just be marriage without the word marriage in it... the so called good Christians wouldn't hate it as much as they hated gay marriage.
