Libertarian Party endorses GAY MARRIAGE

[pochy1776]

I think we can all rest easy. This "Freedom to Marry" act referenced in the Libertarian endorsement appears to decrease the amount of government restriction & government intrusion into people's lives, not not increase it.

If I'm reading this correctly, this seeks to overturn a Constitutional amendment that was passed that puts restrictions on who is allowed to get married. So, this is essentially nullifying an amendment to a state Constitution that removes freedom from some people.

Is it expanding the number of times the state will be involved in marriages? Sure. Is that a bad thing in and of itself, when they are already involved in marriages? I don't see why. Should we still work toward getting the government out of marriage entirely? Of course. Does allowing gay people to get married too in the meantime actually harm anyone or anything? Of course not.

I think it's a good first step. Until we can get government out of marriage entirely, we shouldn't be telling some people "You can only get married if you do it the way my religion says you can." I think removing said Constitutional amendment is the right thing to do. Constitutions should be about limiting government, not limiting people's freedoms.

A good first step, as in giving more minorities protection and benefits. Why don't we kill of all of those benefits. Also, the LBGT community is not as sound or moral as the media want you to believe. If anything, Gays And Lesbians should stop bitching about it and get married with out the state seal of approval. Same with the Straight People. The Libertarian Party ought to change their name to the Cosmotarian party, As they think social liberalism and not being as uptight will attract people to Libertarianism. If anything, being uptight and socially conservative (as long as you are not forcing it by government) is much more Libertarian than being some feminist, Lesbian, Crunchy Gary Johnson Supporter.

finally, read both the social conservatives doctrines and the gay lobby agenda. You will find that they are of the same pathetic ilk. Using Government power to force beliefs onto a people. Yet, It is okay when gays do it for equality. If anything I hate the Gays with a fucking passion when they scream for their oh so wanted equality. (The same goes for people with mild learning disabilities.)
