| Proposition 8 - Why America is still shite.
Wiki Quote: |
Proposition 8 is an initiative state constitutional amendment on the 2008 California General Election ballot, titled Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry. If passed, the proposition would "change the California Constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry in California."A new section would be added stating "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California."
| Some 'change', eh?
This is why America is still shite, for me. I literally see no point in this. |

California's been going "YES" "NO!" "MAYBE!" "WE'RE NOT SURE" like a young bisexual over gay marriage. | |

Ah-Nuld's dislike of 'Girlie Men' spreading throughout the state, it appears. | |

This is ridiculous, I'm sincerely hoping they don't let it through.

My personal beliefs is that marrige is between man and woman.
My political beliefs is that 1. Its a states rights issue 2. Marrige is between two people, sex not having any affiliation with it. | |

| Re: Proposition 8 - Why America is still shite.
So America is "still shite" based on something that was being discussed long before Obama was elected, and got over 1 million petitioners wanting it to be voted upon? Or is the man who isn't going to be in office for another 2 months supposed to have turned round to the state senates and said "i know you all govern on issues in a local and democratic way, but i've decided you're not allowed to do that anymore"?
But yeah, 37 states have the death penalty but let's complain about one bill in one state which was voted on by over 11 million people. It's hardly been snuck in has it? Besides, it's validity is still being challenged, so it may be scrapped. | |

Marrige is between two people, sex not having any affiliation with it. | Well in Britain marriage still is between a man and a woman as they were too afraid of offending Religious community by using the term 'marriage', which is why there's such a thing as civil partnerships.
It's all bullshit. Marriage should be between two people who love each other and want to make a commitment to each other, plain and simple.
