"Gay Marriage court cases in Idaho, Nevada, and Hawaii"
Julian Smith
On Monday three judges from the 9th U.S. Court of Appeals are set to hear arguments on gay marriage bans in Idaho, Nevada, and Hawaii. there are currently 19 states as well as Washington D.C. now allow gay marriage and In the Past year we have managed to legalize gay marriage in over a dozen states but gay rights supporters aren't happy until its legal in all fifty states. The case is looking strong for gay rights supporters based on who the judges are. Jude Stephen Reindhart (one out of the three judges) is considered one of the most liberal jurists on the 29 judge court. The other to Jurors were appointed by Bill Clinton and are Liberals.
Hopefully our nation will continue to follow the path to freedom and equality. We seem to be on the right track but were not even halfway there yet. So far our National Government has refused to make a national law on this matter despite being asked several times by States and organizations on both sides.

Hopefully soon enough America will treat all people equally. In the end we all just want to find love not stop other people from being happy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Madana. I understand that people have their own beliefs and religions, but I don't understand why that necessarily should affect someone else and their life.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I strongly believe that someone's faith should not play a role in their politics. Love is love. Denying someone the right to be in a partnership with someone they want to spend the rest of their life with is wrong.
ReplyDeleteI believe that if you are not involved with the situation, if it is not your marriage, keep out of it. Love is love and if it's not your love then your opinion shouldn't be relevant. (Myles Bennett)
ReplyDeleteMarriage rights are an extremely important issue right now. It's not fair to not give them as they are denying someone of their happiness based on their own religious beliefs and not anyone else's.
ReplyDeleteWhy should personal lives be a factor in todays world? Why does it even matter who people are attracted to? People need to look at the obvious... Quentin Noble
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why this is a states' issue. This is just basic human rights.
