Congratulations to the USA for recognizing the fact that the LGBT was being discriminated against.
To those still opposed, I am certain that in time this will become a non issue since it will have no bearing on your personal live.

Good luck.Have a happy time with you r can of worms. |

Together 54 years so far
From Dallas-Fort Worth's NBC affiliate, and I do apologize but there is an ad that will run first. Note that the volume of the clip is louder than that of the ad, too. But really sweet. You'll also note (if you read the text) the official is a member of their church who had a vacation day and went to the courthouse to volunteer her time. |

I will have to assume that the peoples of the USA must be right different than those in Canada then. We have had same sex marriages in this country for over 10 years and that has had no negatuve impact on anyone`s life.
Do take the time to list all of the negative things you think will occur as a result of this decision.
I`m certain many of us would find that entertaining.

Gay marriage was legalized in my state in 2008, so your crackpot beliefs failed long ago.
Edit to add... PIDGE!!!

They were all going to move up here when the Affordable Health Care Act passed as well. Lot's of people are going to be disappointed.
Hiya Bear! Hiya Scalvert! Amazing how some things haven't changed around here ;-)

David Ey, if things go as they usually do when someone paints himself into a corner, I predict you will NOT return to deliver for us all the negative things that will happen now that the US really does have equal rights for all rather than just saying so.
But, for grins and because you brought it up, and because I know you're more courageous than most, I look forward to your list of all negative things in our can of worms that will befall us because we have marriage equality. Go.

You haven't made a specific point, so I don't know if your issue is with the SC or simply the preservation of inequality, but the state I live in has allowed same-sex marriage for more than a decade. Not one negative thing has been attributed to it. |

You've kind of got to admire that kind of stubbornness. Takes a lot of gumption to hang on to such outmoded beliefs in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. |

No worries folks, I'll make sure to screw something up within two years.

The beautiful thing is that this thread has been around for so long there's a very good chance that two years from now we will actually have an opportunity to see the response! |

No, we won't. We've already waited 7 years for a list of the Bad Thingsâ„¢ that will supposedly befall us, and we're still waiting. The predictions of bigots who can't even articulate a specific harm are the fortune cookies of hatred: vague pronouncements in search of an eventual match, and if a tornado hits a Starbucks somewhere in Dallas, that'll be the proof of our regret. Or maybe some anecdote of a photographer being coerced over gay marriage?
Whether this thread goes on two days, two years or two generations, we'll still be mocking the lunatics recycling the same "End is Near" sandwich boards used when women were allowed to vote or people were allowed to marry other races. Just you wait, you'll see, it's coming any minute now, probably tomorrow... |

I'm not sure why peeps like you do this to yourself....throwing out a verbal bomb and then running hell-bent toward safety when someone asks you to defend it.
You stated there were "negative" things that would result as a consequence of the SCOTUS decision on gay marriage.
You have been asked what those negative changes are. You refuse to answer. Why? Please show you have the balls to answer the question. |

You have already planted the seed of the total destruction of traditional marriage, just you wait. Look at poor Bristol Palin, daughter of a momma grizzly, child of traditional marriage and right thinking. But because "the gays" went and wrecked traditional marriage, she is now pregnant with her second child (by a different father) without the joys of holy matrimony. Poor Bristol, one of what will many victims of the gay marriage plot.

Great example of the recent progress this country has made: The gay marriage thread is now about golf. |
