How would you feel if you had to wait months, even years, to be legally married to someone you really loved? People shouldn’t care who you love, it’s not their business! It’s not fair to no be able to be married to someone you want to be with for the rest of your life just because others think its weird. Same sex marriage is just as important as Civil Rights and should be dealt with.
Many gay and lesbian couples are not only not allowed to marry but are also discriminated against. Gay and lesbians are being called names, beaten up (verbally and physically) as well as being cyber bullied and getting kicked out of the house when they finally get the courage to tell their parents. This must stop! Nobody should be treated like this or be forced to be someone they aren’t just to please others and for their own safety. On the other hand a lot of Christian people or other religions that don’t believe in same sex couples. The Bible says, “If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them have committed an abomination.” (Leviticus 20:13.) But the Bible does infact include a gay relationship between David and Johnathan.
Allowing same sex marriage is very important for America’s future “land of the free” that has no set religions. We now must face the fact that if we don’t do something about this , history will repeat itself causing a second Civil Rights movement. And just as before not everyone is going to agree on what’s going on. We can’t deny anyone the “pursuit of happiness” a basic law in the constitution.
Legalizing gay and lesbian marriage is going to be the next big step for America for the better. It is high time that all people are granted their basic rights. Everyone needs to just stay out of others’ lives, focus on their own, and let people live however the want to because that’s what makes them happy!
