NC gay marriage + civil unions banned

[pellaz]

I don't understand why Christians make gay marriage a huge issue ...

at least the Catholics; they blame the gays for their pedophile issues

You notice in the media, so long as the person is well dressed he or she can say anything. It must be printable but if it is controversial all the better. It is news worthy, no matter if it is way off base.

Here in Arizona they don't allow gays to marry nor do they recognize any marriages of gays from states that legalize it. However, we have taken small steps towards equality in that many county and city governments have extended benefits to the partners in gay relationships. Here in AZ I find it quite conservative but we are taking small steps hopefully towards everyone being equal one day.

It's just shocking that in 2012 there is still this discrimination and hate against homosexual people. Why people can't live and let live I'll never know.
