I think it is not equalizing marriage, but redefining marriage. A
marriage between a black and a white is still man + woman. Now it is
"*** marriage" which I guess is the term we'll use to define a
marriage that is not between a man + woman. Anyway I am sooo glad
that it's the states that decide. These are issues that need to be
addressed state level. I love people and I especially love happy
people. I do have views, and I am thoughtful and considerate of
others and have served in the military along with some in my family
who have died serving. I may not agree with you, but I have
sacrificed for you to have the freedom to express your view, and hope
that there are others that see the need or calling to protect your
future ability as well.
