I just dont care...lets talk about important things , like the way old people are treated and the way their carers are treated and disabled rights which have fallen off the radar and the gap between rich and poor and massive youth unemployment, nhs problems and the failing police services, etc etc

It doesn't really bother me, it would be nice if people woke up and realised that it was 2012 and not the ****ing dark-ages, but they won't. So I've come to terms that it won't be made legal everywhere. Even if it was I doubt I'd get married.

Why would I want to waste my time supporting it? I could not give a monkies if someone is married or not.

I voted 'yes' on the poll. As long as somebody's beliefs, sexuality, lifestyle, etc, doesn't harm me in any way I fail to see any problem - it's their life, not mine. I really don't see why anybody would say otherwise.

However, if you act on those views and discriminate against someone else based on any feature of them you dislike, then the said person would indeed fall into the 'bigoted' category. Don't throw names at someone just because you dislike their views.

I am not bothered at all as to anyones sexual orientation,no matter the make up of the relationship.
If 2 people ,2 men, 2 women or a man and women want to make a commitment to each other for life and want to call it marriage then I don't think there should be any barriers to that taking place. |

It's just marriage... I don't consider myself to be in a 'straight marriage'... so all this 'gay marriage' is just nonsense.
We're not going to start deciding that people can't marry because they're short or ugly.. so why should we get to decide based on their sexuality.. It's all bull**** in my opinion. I don't give a flying **** whether someone is into guys or girls or both .. I don't get why people care so much about what others are doing.

I'd be interested to see what people who argue that it "doesn't affect them" would have done during the civil rights movement and whether they'd have supported Martin Luther King Jr. in his heyday. You're really inspiring.

Not everyone who believes that being gay is wrong necessarily hates the idea. In case you didn't realise, I'm on about the people who simply don't like the idea of being gay or gay marriage but doesn't mind the people. It does happen, you know. It would also be appreciated if you would desist from saying I have no grasp of the English language whe I clearly do, otherwise you wouldn't be able to understand my posts now, would you?

Well then don't say that using the word "bigot" is "throwing names around". as if it's just a schoolyard taunt. it's not, it's an accurate description. It's not "throwing names around", it's using the appropriate word to describe people who fit the definition. and your argument that you can hate homosexuality but not hate homosexuals is ridiculous, it's like saying, "i don't hate black people, i just hate the black people that act black" "I don't mind asian people, as long as they don't do anything asian." WTF.

In response to your actual post, though, I refer you to my first sentence before you go round the houses and take what I actually said out of context.
