I’m so tired of talking about Prop 8. It’s so dumb.
I understand, you may feel the gay marriage is against your religion. That’s fine. I’m not making anyone get married. But I don’t think it’s fair for you to say who can and can’t get married. Religion isn’t a good reason for you to say gay people can’t married. Ever heard of the separation of church and state? Yeah, that applies to everything. Everything. Weather you personally agree with it or not. Some religions say that women don’t have rights. Should that be a law because it’s someone’s religion? No. I don’t think so. You can’t use the religion card. So put it away.
And just so everyone is clear, California currently has gay marriage. For a few months they’ve been able to get married. I haven’t heard about anything horrible happening, have you? I’ll I’ve heard about are a few more happy married couples. EVIL! Yeah, not so much. Nothing bad is going to happen. Everyone should have the right to get married. Kinda like they do now…
I can’t speak for everyone, but I’m pretty sure that most people that want to yes on Prop 8 aren’t gay. And gay people getting married will effect them how…? Oh that’s right, it won’t. It may let people they know or are related to get married. But it’s not like it made those people gay, so I’m guessing they would have had a problem with them anyway.
It’s not right to make laws preventing only part of the adult population from doing something that others can based on their gender.
Why do gay people need to get married? They don’t. Neither do straight people. I think we should take it away from straight people too. How stupid does that sound? Very. So how about we don’t take it away from anyone? Kthanks.
Vote No on Prop 8.
There was new South on Friday. I waited over a year for that. I watched it with Trav and Justin. It was like it was back in the day. And that is wonderful. :]
Talk about an emotionally trying day. I cried at the park. And then for a half an hour when I was IMing Sam. I hate that this feels like a breakup. Sam was awesome though. I really needed someone to talk to, and he was great. And later Alyssa called and tried to (and did) make me all happy.
To prove my point about how awesome Sam is, look at the nice stuff he wrote:
Sam:
I can remember back in the day
when we hated each other
even so
i could tell that you were their best friend [Travis and Justin]
it was meant to be
even way back then.
Oh yeah, it’s you. and it’s been you since I met you. Now what am I going to do about it? Oh right, nothing. And I think that’s okay… for now. :]
I have too much free time. I really really do. I need to go out and talk to more than three people. Yeah. Life, where did you go?Maybe I’ve been reading too much…
