So, right now the Supreme Court is deliberating over whether or not gay marriage is legal/constitutional, so I've heard. I'll be honest, I haven't really been keeping up with the details. I assume they're deciding whether or not states, cities, or regions have the right to ban it or not, as it doesn't seem feasible for the Supreme Court to outright say gay marriage is legal or illegal.
This is kind of a no-brainer at this point. Just because some people think it's icky or weird because their priest told them so doesn't mean they get to decide what other people can and can't do. It's pretty odd that the country's right wingers seem to be the ones who are protesting people's right to marriage, since they're supposed to be all about small government and limited intrusion of freedoms.
It's none of your damn business. Period. You don't get to decide that it's illegal, whether you think it's weird or immoral or against god. There are a lot of things in this country that are legal that I don't like too, such as country music.
A lot of people on Facebook right now are changing their profile pictures to pink equal signs, to show their support for marriage equality. I think this is a very respectable action, but I don't really find it to be a respectful symbol. Pink? Really? What does that imply? I happen to have gay friends who are not effeminate and don't prance around. I can't imagine they're big fans of this symbol.
This one looks better, in my opinion - it's less fluffy.
