Massachusetts could become the first US state to grant full marriage privileges to homosexual couples, raising the stakes in an issue that has caused bitter division across the country and increasing the likelihood of a national ruling on same-sex marriage.
The state' s Supreme Court is expected to hand down a decision as soon as Monday on gay and lesbian marriage.
The Massachusetts lawsuit involves seven couples, who sued the state because their applications for marriage licences were denied. They claim this violates sections of the state' s constitution that outlaw discrimination.
I thing the marriage deal is a sacred ceremony that was meant for a woman and a man.
If the gays want to have a union, that' s fine, but they should call it something else.
In my mind I think what they are doing is wrong, but, it ain' t up to me to condemn them. It is up to me to protect my children and their children from the *****s. A prime example was the parade the gays had in frisco celebrating their latest supreme court victory. They were dancing in the streets practically naked and I don' t want my chidlren to have to see that crap and it' s hard not to see them when they put it on tv news and such. So, I' ll continue to vote for people that are anti-gay rights and those people are getting few and far between because most politicians are chicken-sh... And, if I get the chance, I' ll break some flagrant high stepper' s jaws and put him out of action for awhile.
Im sure Hell will welcome them with open arms. The thing that bothers me is that this is State sanctioned and approved perversion. This is not a matter of seperation of Church and State, this is a matter of common values and the minority is ruling the roost.
This is a perfect example of , You get what you vote for...Someone elected the governor(s) who appointed these judges and now they will dictate through the judical system what should be done throught the legislative branch. The effect will not be limited to this one State. Other states will have to recongnize this unnatural but legal union.
If they, the court, come down on the side of the homosexual community, I hope the homos flock there to live and overload their insurance cost, hospitals, mental wards and turn the place it SF East. It is just not a life style choice, it comes with a lot of problems. These people are not stable, have serious emotion conflict and problems, not healthy and want to control as much government as they can for their own survival. That would be a shining example for the rest of the country.

Not to mention that the big problem with this is that once ONE state passes this crap, the *****s can claim " equal accesss clause" of the 14th Amendment and then whether the state you live in is conservative or not, you' ll have to have it shoved down your throat.
Then comes adoption........ the snowball effect will be absolutely mind boggling
