In this article the author primarily discussed how the topic of gay marriage is growing as an issue, even extending to more conservative states. The article references former court cases and compares them to today's ever changing standards pertaining to marriage. In relation to Oklahoma it reports that a judge there has ruled any ban on gay marriage is unconstitutional earlier this week.
There's not an active stance taken in the article, although it's inferred that the author is in support of gay marriage, which is something I am completely in support of as well. Gay marriage should be legal in all states because it is unconstitutional (as many states are beginning to determine) to ban same sex couples from marrying, even if it's for economical benefits only. Beyond that it is my own personal opinion that, as human beings, gay couples deserve federal and social approval of their marital choice. This issue is comparable to the former issue of interracial marriage and really shouldn't be an issue to begin with.
I'm picking up what you're throwing down Kaylynn! Why should someone's rights be any different based on sexual orientation? I literally cannot comprehend how anyone can be against same sex marriage. Yes, I understand that many religions aren't really for it, but just because something is legal doesn't mean you have to do it.
