A little transfer of logic here. if by some peoples logic here you have to have served in the military to support the war .
Does that mean to support Gay marriage you have to have been gay? If not does that make you a Gayhawk maybe a Homohawk or even a ***hawk? Unless some of you are coming out!
Always striving for consistancy :p

There are brothers and sisters out there that would like to have their very 'close', loving and special feelings for each other legitamized by state and federal governments. Besides, the economic boom from increased marriages in Cowlitz county could be very beneficial to the area

Grandpa-
Examples of homosexual behavior exist in species as advanced as apes (Benobo Chimpanzees as a prime example) and as simple as protozoa. You google it....I learned it in school.
So your definition of 'freedom' is banning stuff merely cuz we don't like it?
Here's my ban list:
Idiots
Ugly people
Stupid people
Tampon commercials
Boy Bands
Divas
....and on and on.
Again, substantiate the way in which a gay couple being married rams anything down your throat.
You don't have to see it unless your porn store wanderings happen to 'accidentally' take you down the gay porn aisle. Even then, avert your eyes if you can.....
If your only objection to gay marriage is that you don't approve won't you admit that is a pretty thin argument for banning something outright? If not, why?

There you go again. :rolleyes: If I sat here waving a rainbow flag advocating that everyone should have a gay wedding, as long as I don't have to, then yeah, I guess that would be relevant. But that's the GOP way; do as I say not as I do.

You know what's perverse?
Out of one corner of your mouth sending soldiers off to die for 'freedom' and out of the other denying another man his freedom because you don't like what he does.
Example:
I hate bluegrass. Makes me want to vomit. I think its wrong and it goes against nature to play the guitar all Lamar Latrell. One of my best friends loves it and forces me to listen to it every time i go to his place, rams it down my throat as it were.
Using the exact same logic, if I could marshall the forces of metal uniting all headbangers across the country (especially the rich ones) into convincing the majority of voters or the right senator that it is somehow perverted to listen to bluegrass we could simply ban it.
Identical logic (albeit a horribly constructed sentence). Identical impingement of freedom.
No?
Constitutional amendment to ban bluegrass...who's in?

One has to wonder at times.....
I mean, the guys arguments are vaporized into acrid smoke and he keeps coming back for more and more....
Using republican style logic, whether he's ever touched the suff or not, he MUST be a crackhead.

H20, What arguement DB. I am not oppsed to gay marriage if your reading glasses slipped.
on other topics.
My arguements have only been countered with ad hominem attacks against GW. Nothing has been countered or even addressed for that matter. I will throw up another one in a few minutes so you losers can rail on GW ad hominem of course

You may want to re-think your character references when analogizing an argument condemning the thought processes of people who oppose legalizing gay marriages.

happenstance that lamar is of the homosexual persuasion. i'm talking about playing guitar with a loose sloppy wrist, which he clearly has.
guitar should come from the gut and forearm.

Well I have to do a John Kerry on Gay marriage.
My neutral position was based on the constitution and assumtion that not granting a civil union was a violation of civil rights. I was wrong. Further review shows there is no violation of a gay persons civil rights . Re marriage they have 100% of the rights that non gay people have. Let me explain this. A gay person can marry anyone that a non gay person can so there is no discrimination and no violation of the gay persons civil rights. With that I am against Gay marriage.

A gay man can marry anyone that a straight man can. A gay woman can marry anyone that a stright woman can. So there is no discrimmination.
Be careful not to flop out the unsueable arguement of comparison of the old law against interacial marriage it will not work.
A balck man could not marry the same a a white man. Race was the basis of this discrimination.
Sex has always be a line accepted as a defining difference.
