Re: equal rights, not just a good idea
Faith, do you know what happened when the couple in Oregon refused to serve the public? You know, they didn't want to bake a cake for a gay wedding.
I'm just curious if you know what really happened, or if you believe what you made up happening, in your head.

So, according to you, if people vote against recognizing same-sex marriage then the people have spoken & laws are adjusted accordingly.
Then a few years later, the people vote again & this time they approve same-sex marriages. The laws are adjusted accordingly, and then a few years after that the people vote again.
Do you see why civil rights issues like this can't be left to popular vote?

...those states VOTED FOR the gay marriage ban.
And then a few years later they vote to lift the ban. And then it comes up again & the whole thing is never settled.
How do you avoid that, Faith? If we leave it to popular vote, when does it end?
