Amazing how many people are openly predjudice against gays in this day and age. Search Twitter using the F word that rhymes with lag (the one that cost Kobe and Jakim a pretty penny) and you'll see a slew of hateful comments that will disgust you whilst exposing you to some of the worst humanity has to offer.

New York liberals also turns up some pretty hateful results.

Well howdy again guys! I'm back! Haha. At least for a lil but. The whole lockout thing has given me a case of the sads and thus I haven't been around. But I'm gonna try to come around more often cuz... I miss you guys!

I whole heartedly support gay marriage (surprise surprise) but I do feel it should be handled on a state level rather than a federal level. Of course there will be states that will completely vote against it (Think Bible belt) but I think more "progressive states" i.e. NY, MA, VT, maybe Cali someday, would have a good chance of allowing gay marriage. I just feel like the federal government have other things they should be handling.

Welcome back.

FYI, federal Defense of Marrige Act legislation and enforcement of it is part of the problem.

Im with d-rave in that i think it should be left up to the states, the federal govt has more imortant things to worry about. Im also with smootsmack in that i also dont really care for the most part. But I will say i think to some degree that its a civil rights issue and i have never once heard a good argument to not allowing gays to marry.

One thing that AMAZES me is when conservatives are against gay marriage or civil unions...... how can you want the government out of our lives (on either the federal or state level) but want legislation on gay people marring??? I just dont get it. Also i got no problem with the word fag. So many more meanings then a nasty word for a gay person. I havent heard someone viciously call a gay person a fag in years, if ever. When words are narrowly defined they can become much more hateful in my opinion.

First of all, we miss yo ass!!

The interesting thing about the N.Y. vote to legalize gay marriage is that it was passed with a Republican majority. That's a huge, huge shift in sentiment and it gives other states some political cover that have Republican majorities in the state senate and assembly.

The only point I'm making is gay couples around the country can take heart that Republicans are coming out of the closet, so to speak, on this issue and don't want to be seen as out of step with the rest of the country.

(Hey, were you anywhere near that parade madness this weekend?) Crazy!

I was out in New York City yesterday and there were a lot of proud people in the streets yesterday, but I must say I felt pretty odd being one of the few people holding the hand of someone of the opposite sex.

Seriously though, good for those that now finally can legally marry, like Doogie Howser. But it doesn't make my heterosexual marriage any less special. I treated my wife to a fancy dinner on Saturday. It was a wonderful evening out. Crazy expensive though. But it's fine, I wanted to treat her to something nice...and at no point did I think man my marriage just seems to fake now that they're letting gays marry.
