Voters in Maine say no to gay marriage

So the masses have voted, and the message is clear, 53% of Maine residents would rather not have gays and lesbians called ‘married couples.’ For those not keeping up with the gay marriage debate here in the US of A, this gives the gay marriage movement the 31st consecutive defeat in which the popular vote decided whether it should become law or not.

I think this should say something about the climate of the U.S in terms of the homosexuality agenda as every time the people have gotten the chance to decide, they have voted a resounding no. And if you must know, I am one of those who believe that marriage should between a man and a woman and not between Rosie O’Donnell and Ellen DeGeneres.

This has nothing to do with discrimination, all we the people (and by that I mean the majority) are saying is we’re fine with gays and lesbians having civil unions and getting whatever benefits they feel they are entitled to, but we are not fine with teaching our children that Bob and Steve are married and thus a regular couple like John and Mary.

And its quite ironic that the same people who are currently saying that this is an infringement on personal rights are the same persons who if the popular vote had decided it was OK would be lauding it as a milestone in the homosexuality debate. Well guess what it’s not so if you must marry I suggest moving to a state that allows it or maybe packing up ship and moving to a country like Canada.
