That's exactly right. A mayor doesn't have the authority to decide what laws he/she wants to uphold.They must uphold and abide by the laws, the same as you and me.

Sure they can, and they did. The people of California decide on their community values, not the opinions of a few, or pressure from other states to adopt their community values. The Supreme Court of California upheld the written law of the people of California.

What does Bush have to do with this? He might want to enact a law, but it takes the Congress and the Senate to pass a law.

G, I agree with that in the emotional sense.

But they want the right to legally choose a life partner. A marriage license would give them the ability to do things like, get family medical coverage, and make leaving assets to their surviving life partner in a legal will easier.

What I don't geht is all these people that say "It will destroy society". How? They already live together. The world isn't suffering form a dwindling population. Other countries in the EU allow it and are not suffering ill effects. WHO THE FUCK CARES!?! It's none of my business or anyone else’s but theirs. What people who oppose this won't tell you (or admit to themselves) is that the real reason they are against it, it because they are homophobes. Or it goes against their personal religious beliefs. Then you geht those who say "No it's not that. It's "their community values". What kind of sense of "values" or "decency" do you have if you're trying to keep two people, in love with one another apart.
These people are the sick degenerates that think that homosexuals are a bunch of perverts, and that it's all about sex. They can't fathom that there is the same emotional attachment with their partner as heterosexuals have with their partners of the opposite sex.
Ignorant, Backwoods, stone aged, fuckers. <--Not a flame to anyone on this site, But if you think the person I described above sounds like you; then you know who you are. Nothing I can do to help you.

It's really cool that the German army has made that step forward to allow unconventional couples love each other. I have said this many times before, and I'll say it again. Just because someone admits to being gay, does not mean they've lost all consideration and common sence. They're not going to decide it's right to make out it public or do what ever (PDA), just like straight couples do minimal physical stuff in public. It should be alright for gays to hold hands and show affections by hugging/kissing though.
Sometimes, I get really...uhh...almost depressed when I see our straight couple friends hugging and knowing I can't because I am offending someone's sexuality somewhere.
As for the marraige being void (I haven't read the artical yet, so I don't know what's happening to the mayor) I think it's not that big of a set back, that it was merely a statement of what's to come. It was like a piece march or a sit in and marry protest. It'll happen in my lifetime, that I can be married.

ACtually, the problem was that the SF mayor did something that he wasn't allowed to do. If anybody lied it was him. However, this was done more to make a statement than anything so the gay couples that got married in SF knew the risk that they were running. Yes, I'm for homosexual civil unions, but think about this reasonably here.

Actually, it provides rights to insurance coverage, legal guardianship, and many other rights (hundreds) that are not provided to you if you don't have that "piece of paper". Please inform yourself of the issues before commenting on them.

I would like to get married to my girlfriend someday, and I want to have the same rights. I understand if someone doesn't want to call it "Marriage" to, I guess "purify" the institution as between a man and a woman. So call it civil union, or make it a prettier word..like wedlock, or conjugality* and give me my rights as a human being with another human being.


*are the same as marriage, for all of those who didn't catch that.

Than again it would be allot easier if they would just let gays get married. Then there would be no issues with marriage rights. Hell,
let them get married for all i care.

The issue is not that people just "want" this piece of paper. The issue is that they need it right? The rights that are withheld for people that don’t have a marriage license are what the real issue is. Otherwise i believe no one would really care because like someone said earlier it doesn’t really matter weather you have a piece of paper to say your married or not if you really love someone and want to be with them forever. That is strictly a personal bond and the government can only protect those rights and not scrutinize you for being a certain way.

It is also very good way to segregate the two party system because you are either going to be for it or against it right? Especially if you are hard-core republican or hard core democrat. It gives the public issues.

I have never really heard a valid opinion saying why gays shouldn't be allowed the same rights. What I hear is that it's not natural, or it's a sin, or the bible this..or what ever. It seems to me, that the people saying these things are one step down (or a few) on the educational ladder.

You mentioned that you are indifferent, but do you think gays should get full rights whether it be called marraige or whatever?

Right. That's exactly what Bush has done with his campaign. "If you don't like me, like what I stand for, because the other guy has no morals" so he splits the country in half, making it a tighter election. I don't see why anyone would want to admit their bias and alienate a whole chunk of the US.
