i signed this petition nicole. i am an ally of the lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgendered community. i think that outlawing gay marriage should primarily be dealt with state by state as it is at this point and has nothing to do with the federal government; therefore, bush is allowed his opinions but i believe has no right to set one standard for the whole country declaring gay marriage wrong.
i have gay friends. one of my closest male friends is gay- but nonetheless he is the most beautiful, open, loving people i have ever met in my life. it breaks my heart to think that if he were to fall in love, he would not be allowed to marry his boyfriend. who are we to judge what is love and what is not?
in fact, if gay marriage is outlawed, i think marriage in general should be as well.
i don't mean to offend. you can believe whatever you want to believe. i believe that adding an amendment to the constitution not allowing gay people to marry is ignorance.
