Kids need happy parents. What's the worst that can happen? They're going to teach their kids to be gay? Yeah because teaching kids to be straight obviously works.
I wish it were like that.
This is the problem: Based on statistics from the UK, Canada, and Massachusetts, the average Gay Marriage lasts for two years. The average homsexual person has 6 sexual partners a year.
I really have no problem with homosexuals, I have a couple gay friends myself, just the logistics prove that it doesn't make sense and it shouldn't be allowed for a child to be put into that situation.
People in homosexual relationships have been proven to be more violent against children.
If we have to talk about rights..what about the rights of children? Do we just forget about them? Shouldn't they have the right to a mother and a father? After all that's the way things are supposed to be in nature, right? Or have we gotten so caught up in political correctness, entrenched in rights that we've lost sight of one of the most basic and intrinsic characters of life..Marriage.
Civil unions dictate the same laws, and same legal status as a marriage in California, what is wrong with keeping the status quo, haters will hate regardless, and people who accept, will accept regardless.
