Gay Lesbian and Transgender Month
Does it bother you that President Obama just declared June as Gay and Lesbian Month, just because he can. Let's see 6 states voters have rejected gay marriage including California. Now the homosexual movement wants gay marriage to be considered a civil right and they are claiming the 14th Amendment which outlawed slavery applies to the. Ok, let's hear it, who does not agree with this and why. It is time for open and hones t debate about this subject without personal attacks on the merits of each side. No labeling people homophobic, that is a tired trick when you are losing an argument is to label people. Look this is a democracy, we expect people to disagree, that is why we have a procedure for passing laws, elections, constitutional amendments, etc. What was not envisioned by the founding patriots, was activism by the judiciary, they created a legislative branch to make law, an executive to carry it out, and a judiciary to interpret when the Constitution applies. When the federal government has jurisdiction and what areas left are all the jurisdiction of the states. By the way, marriage has always been considered the purview of the states. The 10th Amendment specifically says that all areas not reserved to the federal governement remain to the states and the people.
