Same-Sex Marriage Bill Introduced

Senator Scott Dibble, DFL-Mpls, and Rep. Karen Clark, DFL-Mpls, announce the introduction of a bill allowing same-sex marriage in Minnesota. If approved by the legislature and signed by Governor Dayton, the measure would overturn current law, which recognizes only marriage between opposite sex couples.

During the 2012 general election, voters rejected a proposal that would have placed in the state constitution the definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman. The defeat of the proposed amendment; however, did not overturn Minnesota's law.

Proponents of same sex marriage announced their intentions at a Wednesday, February 27, press conference. Also on Wednesday, supporters of Minnesotans for Marriage stressed their reasons for defeating the proposed legislation.

Those two guys with the kids are gorgeous, what a lovely family.

It is quite useless to argue with people who want to discriminate. No logic, no amont of researc, no practical experience, no comments of professional psychologist or legal experts will change the opinion to these stubborn people. They just seem to enjoy despising other people.

They just don't know what they have ass holes for

Although they maybe look like a nice "pure" family, they probably cheat on each other, or have an open relationship. It's very, very rare to meet gay men in a relationship that don't cheat on one another & have a strong desire to have constant sex outside of their relationship.

If you ever want to embarrass a gay male couple, just ask them how they met. Unless they've worked up a lie so as not to be caught off guard, it's very common they have met met via a one-night stand or in a bath house.

Disgusting. I'm glad I do not have to suck another man's penis or penetrate a man's anus. Feces in a urethra anyone?

Rather than calling it Same-Sex, they should call it General Marriage Bill.

The French version's name, for example, translates to "Marriage For All". It covers trans and genderqueers, not just homosexuals.

A lot of people are actually afraid of what they don't understand. And rather than trying to learn more to get over their fear, they just stay away from it and stick to shallow and simple labels.

It's not necessarily out of pleasure, although some of them DO get openly cynical and obnoxious.

"pulling this kind of thing"

No, that's not coherent writing either. You're still babbling.

[longpastdue]

This is getting sad now, are you really pulling this kind of thing? You know damned well who I meant and you yet again are trying to avoid making any kind of argument that you know you can't back up. I'm going to leave this be from here out but for your own sake please get some help.
