This is obviously a gay friendly questionaire. I would be willing to bet that people that don't agree with the concept of gay marriage probably hung up after they heard the first question, skewing the polls...I would have.
Gays arent asking for the right to practice incest for crying out loud they simply want the same right that everyone else has when it comes to marriage. Why would you deny anyone basic human rights?

I would feel sad for my child if they were gay, why? well because the world is still full of Evil Bigoted Homophobes! and I could not protect my child from these disgusting bastards 24/7.

One of the only things we should expect as of right is to be happy, in who's name do most of these turds spout there gob of Flem, why in the name of religion. What putrescent pieces of Crap they are

Man y'all get riled up easily. Frankly, I can't understand what the big deal is. There are gay people who were for prop 8, I'm sure. I know that you all think I'm some hate filled bigotted person, but I'm not really. This is just my opinion. People are allowed to have opinions, and you should respect that. I like gay people, really I do (well I like lesbians more than the man/man thing, I have to admit). They are so cute in there little outfits at the gay parades.

Well the problem is the question would be irrelevant - whether homosexuality were a choice or not.

No I said my son (don't actually have one) and his mother should be allowed to marry, but probably should not be allowed to reproduce. Aside from social taboo and deformed offspring, there is no real reason to stop them from marrying. When you're talking about two brothers, the risk of deformed offspring is absent, so them marrying should be even less of an issue than a mother and son marrying, or a brother and sister marrying.

Hard to say, I'd like to see the polling method and stats on those who declined the survey too. Maybe it was in there but I didn't see it.

I would prefer my child be a healthy, happy individual who is not made to feel guilty or ashamed, whatever their sexuality.

THAT is what any sane parent would want for their child.

(Gay and lesbian couples are able to marry in two states, and comprehensive civil union or domestic partnership laws exist in only five others and the District of Columbia.)

Open Military Service
Almost two-thirds (64%) of U.S. adults favor allowing openly gay military personnel to serve in the armed forces. (The current “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” law bans military service by openly gay personnel.)

Extensions toward Hate Crime Laws
About six in 10 (63%) U.S. adults favor expanding hate crime laws to cover gay and transgender people. (Hate crimes laws cover gay and transgender people in 11 states and the District of Columbia, and an additional - 20 states’ laws cover sexual orientation but not gender identity.)

Adoption
Nearly seven out of 10 U.S. adults (69%) oppose laws that would ban qualified gay and lesbian couples from adopting children. (In several states, gay and lesbian couples are banned from adopting.)

More statistics here.
It's offical. All the anti gays live in California.

I don't care what they are, so long as they are happy.

Would you like homosexuals forced to shower with heterosexuals? Don't be ridiculous.

I want my child going to non religious, open minded people who will not fill my kids head with Bible crap.

Even if they were only attracted to children?

Don't see a lot of co-ed showers... do ya? That is because people do not want to be sexualized by people they aren't attracted to. I don't see a lot of women heralding the cause of discriminatory public showers...

It is uncomfortable. You don't get to decide what I feel based on what you think I should. You cannot use OUR sexual preference and discomfort with sexual situations with those for whom we are not attracted, against us.

GLAAD is essentially the Godfather of the gay mafia. They will promote their agenda by any means necessairy. If inflating the risk of AIDS to straights will gain tham power, then they will pursue this fraud in a 20 years effort, effects to America be dammed. And for that one single fraud, everyone should find them contemptable. They have ruined lives in ways that most will never think of. Too bad they have the old media cowed.

Gay men have significantly shorter life expectancy than straights. Even when you adjust for AIDS, they die much younger. Good luck finding these surveys. Thay are raidoactive in today's inclusive, tolerant, gay mafia influenced society.

40 years ago, life insurance for men was informally redlined for certain professions including florist and hairdresser. Guess why?
