im not subscribing to the "end of society" or "kids will be under more stress" if their parents are gay. I dont think that is true at all and there is no evidence to support it. What about kids who have parents who are traditional and get divorced? arrested? I mean there are tons of factors.
Being gay is the most accepted it has EVER been. 15 years ago in High School , NOBODY was gay, or they didnt say they were. Now, not the same thing. Kids are openly gay in HS.
I dont want to debate the sociological implications because that is not the issue. The issue is what constitutes a "RIGHT" and who has the right to decide who gets a marriage license?
To me the answer is clear based upon years of precedent:
Marriage is not a RIGHT
Local municipalities decide what marriage is based upon a voting populations decision.
The Gay movement should be REALLY happy, because when this gets kicked back to a STATES RIGHTS issue, the SCOTUS will basically be saying that the FEDs have NO PRECEDENT to decide anything on marriage, which will leave the door wide open to striking down any tax benefits for any married couple. But i suspect they arent seeing the forest through the trees.
