Can Gay Marriage Really Be Legalized? Can't We Have That Right? (Blog 5)

    Why does something have to be limited because something isn't "natural" or "normal?"  I don't agree on the government having the power to control how two people are approved or not approved.  Discrimination towards people is wicked and makes you the bad guy.  Why discriminate on how people are and what they do with their lives?  Why would the government care anyways?

    There are different religions across the nation to understand that we have our own different beliefs.  One of them would be to shame on gay marriage, but it's a different type of situation when the government is involved.  I say that the government is getting "too personal" on the matter.  It's not like the world is going to end because two people of the same sex are able to have a marital relationship.

    Can our government really have the right to separate the same sex from being together?  Evidently, the government has been against the idea of two of the same sex type of relationships, yet I see those kinds of relationships at school, the grocery store, and basically any other public place.  Why should people have to hide who they are?  The 10th amendment allows any other rights that are not already in the Constitution, up to the state, as in the state leaders.  This means that the government is choosing not to allow this to happen under their control.

    The states that are okay with gay marriage is 14 states plus the District of Columbia which is: California, Nevada, Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, D.C., Rhode Island, Maryland, Colorado, and New Mexico.  Why not just officially make it okay to have same sex marriages rather than judge it critically to an extent that it’s just foolish to go against?

    Everyone lives their life in their own way.  The government can’t control EVERYTHING we do.  We know the basic boundaries but we don’t need to put up with extra limits that are stereotypical.  We should be able to spread our wings and take off to what we should be able to do.  We should/do have the power to make homogeneous relationships the same as heterogeneous relationships.  We need to fight what is right to all people, which would also mean having the right to marry the same sex.

    The more we act upon this issue to try and change it, the better the outcome will be so that everyone can be happy.  So what if most religions aren’t too fond of this act?  They just need to ignore it and move on with their lives and keep believing in what they believe.  We should support gay marriage.
