Now, it's not only the minorities trying to get free shit, it's gays too right?
You and your Uncle Goober analysis....what a joke. It would be amusing if you weren't so fucking scarey with your dismissive attitude for people's rights. Since when do you have any idea what gays think or feel? And, how do you know most gays don't want to have a partner for life and even if that is true, what the fuck does that have to do with treating people like human beings and equal under the law?
And, plenty of heterosexuals marry and don't procreate you jackass.
And, now marriage is a "benefits package"? This is what you are so against gay people having it? You're a nut.
I agree with most of your analysis.
What is the point of marriage today though?
In the past it was a pact between a man and woman to raise children. Now its more like a benefits package with none of the cost (raising children).
I don't consider denying gays marriage treating them "unequally." They cannot "equally" have children. Most gays really don't want children. Most gays don't want to have a partner for life either.
Most gays just want health insurance and some of the legal and tax niceties with none of the inconveniences.
They don't really want to be married. If they did, they'd be procreating, but they don't...because their gay.
And a lot of hetero people today don't want traditional marriage. Some coworker put on his FB page put a picture of himself , his wife and two kids against overlayed with a gay pride logo celebrating the SC decision. He's not even married.
Most marriages don't last and the kids are split up long before they reach college age. Many women will pop a kid or two out for you gratis.
The institution is in trouble and the children suffer. I don't see how the SC decision helps marriage. IMO the SC would have done society a favor by not recognizing marriage as a govt sanctioned, govt funded social contract.
