    It is even worse then that. They are saying we should ignore some people's constitutional rights if enough people don't like them.

    As usual the arguments by conservatives are illogical, untrue, and just plain stupid.

    It's extremely unlikely that more than a handful of gay Americans will exist in 2081. Medicine advances at a rapid pace.

    Gay people should have same right to be miserable as the rest of us married people! :drama: Seriously though, if it doesn't threaten your personal liberty (that is if you are not gay) then why get upset about it? As for bringing god's judgement down upon the US, that ship should have sailed long ago, but we are still here, so maybe he just has a full schedule right now.

    You don't decide to be heterosexual. That is simply the default position. Natural as being male or female.

    You have to decide to be otherwise.

    What we've seen for the second day in a row is the Supreme Court legislating from the bench. I'm fine with gay marriage, I voted for it in Maryland, but that's just it, the people of Maryland decided this for themselves. State sovereignty has been eroding bit by bit since the very beginning, but to outright undermine what people in their voted for sets yet another bad present. The states are where the people hold their last vestige of power and now the Supreme Court has struck a huge blow to that power. They are telling the whole world that your vote does not count, Congress has no limits, the Executive branch has no limits and the Supreme Court no longer interpersonal law, they just decide based on however they want the law to be. The Supreme Court apperantly has no limits as well and can no longer be trusted to make decisions in good faith. The system is dead and nobody seems to care. All the liberals care is they get another W in their colum. Doesn't matter how or why, just that they won at any cost. I hope you guys are proud of yourselves, I can't wait for this all to backfire on you. Oh and congrats on taking down the Confederate flag too, you guys had a big week. Lastly, libtards, don't quote me in this thread, I've said all I'm going to say about it, you'll be waisting your time.

    He's in deep denial, due to his extreme homphobia Dayton is desperate to keep anyone from knowing that he is in fact gay. Here's the proof.

    "The authors investigated the role of homosexual arousal in exclusively heterosexual men who admitted negative affect toward homosexual individuals. Participants consisted of a group of homophobic men (n = 35) and a group of nonhomophobic men (n = 29); they were assigned to groups on the basis of their scores on the Index of Homophobia (W. W. Hudson & W. A. Ricketts, 1980). The men were exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli consisting of heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian videotapes, and changes in penile circumference were monitored. They also completed an Aggression Questionnaire (A. H. Buss & M. Perry, 1992 ). Both groups exhibited increases in penile circumference to the heterosexual and female homosexual videos. Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli. The groups did not differ in aggression. Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies."

    Anyway, are you going to light yourself on fire, move to canada, or get yourself a lovely room at the local pen for starting your armed revolution?

    I guess it is time to use this on federal fuckup.

    Yet another moron who doesn't understand that NO ONE is forced to use the exchange, particularly not people whose employer offers insurance.

    Or maybe he's not a moron -- maybe he's just dishonest enough to take advantage of the fact that others are.

    Therefore, you should -- by force of sheer will alone -- be able to cause yourself to become uncontrollably aroused by Jude Law.

    Can you do it?
