Gay Rights On Ballot?!

[zanerbob]

I have often voiced the same argument myself. The fact that people feel they should be able to decide the fates of others based upon their own narrow religious views speaks badly of our society. Of course all people deserve equal rights under the constitution. The right wing christians are trying to legislate gays out of existence, but it is an absurd endeavor. Their ridiculous views should be kept to themselves. They do not seem to understand that what they think is right is not shared by all.

excellent vlog. And I'm happy that we've upped that number to 6 (yay for NH and ME!)... hopefully we'll have more soon!

I agree that it should not be on the ballot, but for different reasons... because we should NEVER vote on civil rights. They shouldn't be subjected to a vote. Ever. The constitution is there in part to protect the minority groups from majority rule, so having rights decided by a popular vote is ridiculous.

[RachelQZ]

Hey, I'm pickin' up what your throwin down, I agree with you...I'm just saying that it will be easily shot down by people who want to, so it cld be useful to pick a different analogy. I know it sounded condescending though, sorry and peace out :-)

[RachelQZ]

I understand your point, but its a false analogy. If you're talking abt womens' and minorities' right to VOTE, then of course putting that on a ballot wldn't make sense (only men/whites voting) But you're not talking abt gay right to VOTE, you're talking right to MARRIAGE. Gay people can/do vote. So you can vote for your rights. You can make the point that gay is still minority so may still get a minority vote, but you'd need to use a different analogy for it to make sense.

RachelQZ,

Your comment is just silly stupid because by saying "fake analogy", that's the best joke I have ever heard, thanks for making my day! Obviously you don't understand my video, go figures.. my analogy is all about knowing the fact it will NOT pass. If we put women's right on the ballot, we know it will not pass! If we put civil rights on the ballot, we know it will NOT pass. So, therefore if we put gays on the ballot, it will NOT pass.

That's the whole point of analogy, get it?

[seekgeo]

RachelQZ,

So therefore the whole thing is that the majority shouldn't be making decisions on minorities' rights which I pointed that out as well. Again, I can't help it but laughing by "fake analogy".. you rock for making my day!

Awesome vlog. Well we're getting there, slowly but surely.

Peace.

This is so wonderful! Gay is not a sin. That is a lie. The bible has a Greek word for male prostitute and it was translated into the English bible as homosexual which is not correct. God does not look down on loving and committed gay relationships.

Anyways,

Does Connecticut have full marriage rights for gay couples? I thought it only had civil unions?

(Civil unions are not the same as real marriage rights.)

[seekgeo]

DarkAurora,

Yep, I am speaking of "marriage" so yes, all four states including CT legalized gay marriage, it have to do nothing with civil union which I am not interested in. I linked an article on my blog stating about these 4 states so far that have legalized gay marriage, possibly more coming up which we all know. :-)

-SG

[DarkAurora2002]

This is why I have a lot of respect for you Geo. You are against civil unions but pro same-sex marriage. Civil unions are just a modern day form of "separate but equal".

[SMMauhl]

They want to have sex with them. They never stop sinning. They trap those who are not firm in their faith. They have masterd the art of getting what they want. God has placed them under his curse.

He loved to get paid for doing his evil work.

So Gay want to ballot right i don't support period.

[seekgeo]

SMManuhl,

You know what reflection mirror is ? That is what you are doing by calling everyone "evil" but really yourself is the true evil by bashing others, insulting them, discriminate and such which is full of negativity and hatred.

That is pure evil, evil means nothing but negativity so therefore you are evil, again.. talk about mirror reflection.

Figures.

-SG

[SMMauhl]

In the meantime, he continues to punish them. Most of all , this is true of people who follow the evil longings of their sinful nature. They hate to be under authority.

Those people speak evil about things they don't understand. They are like wild animals. They do what comes naturally to them. They are born only to be caught and destoryed. Just like animals, they too will die. Their idea of pleasure is to have wild parites in the middle of day. They enjoy their sinful pleasures .

[SMMauhl]

I don't support Gay lifestyle at all.

God judged the cities of Sodom and Gommorah. He burned them to ashes. He made them an example of what is going to happen to ungodly people this will be happen this time. They were breaking God's laws. And his godly spirit was deeply troubled. He alos knows how to keep ungodly people under guard until the day they will be judged. Most of all, this is true of people who followthe evil longings of their sinful nature.

[seekgeo]

SMMauhl,

Oh here we go, obviously you did not read the whole story, you just picked one out of it and use it against something you like.

By the way, it's just a book that was written by a group of men but hey, if you want to believe it then be it for all I care. Speaking of evil, that is perfect topic for me to talk about this coming week so I thank you!

[turk223]

Exactly!  No more to say, except: exactly.

[KirneH004]

I'm straight, but I have a lot of LGBT friends. It would be unfair to have rights for "everybody except you, because you're *that way*".

Whatever *that way* is-- it could be anything.

[Banerika]

youarefilthy, you don't even realize that your statement makes no sense. If you're so worried about gay men and their infidelity, you should be *FOR* gay marriage, because marriage is about being faithful and committed in a relationship. Chew on that for a while, before you go get yourself a good therapist to find out why you spend your days gay bashing. Helpful hint, you probably think deep inside that *you* are filthy.

[bluescorpion72]

amen! well said!!!

[shygirl1999]

I am 99.9% sure this is the same person as "yesforgayballot" He sent me this exact same message in a PM.

[shygirl1999]

I was replying to that comment but it came out as a regular comment O_O ...

[seekgeo]

Hey shygirl!

Oh yeah, it's the same person for yesforgayballot, deafish, deafish2, and now youarefilthy, one of these infamous multi-users who sits all day bitching at gays because he have nothing better things to do, go figures. All of these comments the way how he types are exact the same.

-SG

[seekgeo]

To youarefilthy, LMAO.. I am loving every idiotic comments I can get coming from such an idiot like you. Bring it on you little cowardly crap.

You are taking one out of whole research and ignore the rest acting like it's all about gay.

I guess I'd say one thing for the fact that straight men have more HIV than gay men so what do you say about that, eh?

"Worldwide, 85% of new HIV infections are acquired heterosexually, with the greatest number in sub-Saharan Africa."

[Banerika]

I think it's not something to be decided by voters, it's a civil right and the question should be decided in the Supreme Court, and it should simply say that everyone of legal age may marry whoever they choose, thank you very much. Having said that, I think the tide is turning in our culture. We are seeing it now, when most young people are pro gay marriage by a wide margin. These young people grow up to be voters. They can see gay people are just people. Thank God! Or ... whatever.

[Itxx]

I wonder when North Carolina will accept. I hope soon.

[shygirl1999]

There is no reason why it should be on the ballot. You can't control how people choose to love another person.

The only person who is allowed to pass judgment is God, himself.

[JXCOKELOVER73]

since u are thrilled to hear gay legal marriage why dont u guys start to do gay marriage celebrate to be marry in tat state to be married to get legalized ?? smile hope u do video of you and him being marry on video it would be awesome!!

[seekgeo]

Hey JCokeLover, ha.. well let's just say we're happy for people who lives in these states. It won't matter if we get married there since we can't be recognized where we live so I'm sure eventually one of these days our state can, too. :-)

-SG

[seekgeo]

Yesforgayballot, LMAO.. that's one of main reasons I continue to talk about gays because you along with your multi-names like deafish, deafish2 and many more to make several idiotic comments. While you are at writing letters, please include the part where hearing people should vote whether if deaf people should drive or not.

How's that?!

-SG

[shrimpy1966]

yes GEO this person still bother us too, and he has still making idiot comments and we just ignore him, youtube will catch to "it" sooner or later we hope and put his small thoughts and very shallow personality to rest, he is a stalker and dont have a life like the rest of us, such an idiot

[seekgeo]

Hey shrimpy! Ha, you got that right, he have no friends nor even have a life, which is why he's stuck on computer creating multi-users bashing gays all day/night, go figures. So all we can do is feel sorry for him... muwhahaha :-D

-SG

[RiverBirch1967]

LOL about driving. I had a wonderfully delightful experience the other night. I went to a Wendy's drive-through window. I usually stop at the speaker and say "I am deaf, and I am coming to the window" because they get freaked out around here with robberies, etc, plus it's just nice manners. Anyway, I got around there and the guy in the window says "I could not hear YOU over the noise of your diesel engine." LOL! Turn-about was very funny and he was laughing too.

[akakatydid]

Geo, I sooo agree! - This is why I love your videos.. equal rights is part of human rights. I believe gay marriage will eventually be legal everywhere - but it won't be easy or immediate, just like you mentioned with Women's rights or rights for Black people. We are living in great times to see these positive changes coming!

[seekgeo]

Hey akakatydid,

Aw thanks for the compliment! I agree that we are living in great time with a lot of positive changes coming up so that is something good to look forward to. :-D

-SG

[shygirl1999]

Looks like you just put this up, no captions, lol. But surprisingly to me, I can understand some of what your trying to say.

I think everyone should have rights, no matter what path you choose. Putting it on the ballot? idk about that ...

[seekgeo]

Hi shygirl! Oh, it's on now.. when I was done uploading the video then have to give me about 15 minutes or so to add captions so it's on there now. :-)

-SG

[shygirl1999]

I see ^_^ But I do agree with you; its not something that should be on the ballot. *nods*
