Dr. William Barber, NC NAACP President, Speaks Against Amendment One

Rev. Dr. William Barber, President of the NC State Conference of the NAACP, speaks against Amendment One at a rally in Greensboro, NC, presented by eight local organizations working for equal rights for all and by 40 interfaith clergy and faith leaders. "A vote on the same sex marriage amendment has nothing to do with your personal opinion on same sex marriage but everything to do with whether or not you believe discrimination should be codified and legalized constitutionally."

Wow 2 men having anal sex is a choice there lifestyle is a choice why should the definition of marriage be changed because of they choose to have sex with. If everyone were gay the world would die in one generation isn't it obviously wrong. How can this man stand there and deceive these people pls. Read Romans 1 24-26

SAYIN GAY MARRIAGE IS WRONG IS AN OPINION. MARRIAGE IS BOUT LOVE AND LOVE BETWEEN CONSENTIN ADULTS NOT MAN AND WOMAN. GAY MARRIAGE AND STRAIGHT MARRIAGE IS THE SAME MARRIAGE EXCEPT THE GENDERS. AINT NOTHIN WRONG CUS THERRES NO LOGICAL ARGUMENT AGAINST GAY MARRIAGE AND THATS FACT.

I do not understand why this video is causing so much madness. The man is clearly giving you information thats true and can be understood clearly. There is nothig that we can ever do or say that will make same sex marraige OKAY! There is nothing okay about it. Gay couples are constantly talking about their rights, but what right do you have to distort what God made good. He put man and woman together for a purpose, so that life continues. Discrimination is not a factor, its about morals

Thank you Reverend Barber for your very clear and moving expression of the facts and of the heart. As we all know, people who are discriminated against do not say, "OK, you're right, I'm not equal." It may be a long haul (Dr King: "The arc of moral justice is long...") but GBLT and heterosexual people in North Carolina who believe in freedom will keep organizing, praying, and loving our neighbors and one day amendment one will be repealed. (Dr King: ...."but it bends towards freedom.)

Each year, roughly 7,000 blacks are murdered; 94% of the time by another black person, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Blacks are just 13% of the nation’s population but they account for more than 50 percent of homicide victims. Blacks comprise most of the nation’s homicide and violent personal crime (like assault and robbery) victims.

But Ben Jealous and the NAACP are silent on this huge crisis. Instead, they put all their power and influence behind same-sex marriage. How sad.

50 fucking years ago, America protested your rights. People called you NIGGER everytime you left your house. They said you were a product of filth and USED YOUR BIBLE to defend that.

SIN. See ya in hell, DUMBASS.
