Thread Name: BS: Supreme Court & gay marriage decision
Subject: RE: BS: Supreme Court & gay marriage decision
Lets pick on an area of The UK, let's say Scotland for instance. There, a voted in government led by SNP, a party of social justice said in their manifesto they would legalise gay marriage to "remove the stain" as they put it. The Scottish people voted the government in and with cross party support, just like two other regions of The UK, England and Wales, equality in marriage was passed into law, the will of the people.

There are health and welfare considerations for gay people, like the mental anguish whilstever bigots are still alive and getting away with printing lies to persuade people to hate them. Time will cure those barriers though, the police and courts are doing their bit and decent honest people treat bigots with contempt anyway.

Just out of interest for anybody is confused, there is no such thing as homosexual "marriage" but we have marriage for all, equal to and in every way as valid and wonderful as any other marriage, gay or straight.

Perhaps the young man Bruce who I knew in London and suffered with his mental health because of a father who sexually abused him whilst hypocritically opposing rights for gay people will become a story of the past rather than the present once bigots realise their cause is not supported, and their time draws to a sorry close. People like his father rely on hatred of gays.
