Vote No.
I'm not typically a person of politics. Like when I ran for President in my college gov class, it was definitely not my thing. If you were there, you know what I'm saying- total disaster. But in my opinion, this whole idea of a marriage amendment shouldn't even be a political issue. It maybe be on the docket this November, but I don't think it's right.
This is a religious issue people. Ever heard of the separation of church and state? This is not an issue we need to be addressing on our polls this fall. Our country and society are slowly going to shit and this is what people want to focus on? Combined, both sides of this marriage amendment have raised over 10 million dollars. There are people in this world who can't afford a meal, and we are raising money for this?
In all honesty, I believe that this proposed amendment is a way to get conservatives out to vote against democrats. It's a great idea. I'm still at the point in my life where I'm trying to determine my political views, but I know that this is just a trick of the trade and my guess is it's going to work wonders this fall.
I think the biggest issue I have with this amendment is that the people who plan on voting yes are doing it for the wrong reasons. They are typically conservatives who are against homosexuality in general. NEWSFLASH: Voting yes does not mean that gay people will suddenly cease to exist. They will always be here. It's not something that's going to change. Now or ever. They are still going to live together and have a family. So you might as well get used to it.
Our constitution should protect freedoms, not take them. Please consider this as you are voting for this amendment. Try not to jump on the bandwagon. Make your own informed decisions folks, but I'm advising you to vote no.
