Banning gay marriage is about 2 things.

1. Simple hate. Blacks couldn't marry whites for a long time because of hate. No other reason.

2. Money. Corporations don't need to offer benefits to same sex domestic partners.

No one has come up with even a reasonable sounding argument against gay marriage.

I hear all the time that marriage is a centuries old tradition and shouldn't be changed. Of course women should still be property and divorce should be illegal.

There's the talk that marriage is for making children but we allow infertile couples and elderly to marry.

I've probably read and heard the views of 50 to 100 people and there's never been anything that even resembles a reason outside of hate or money.

Personally I don't care about the issue. I look at politics from the point of view of protecting my daughter. If gay people get married in MA that doesn't affect my daughter in any way shape or form so I don't care.
