I disagree about the second amendment. I believe they knew, even with the minor advances in their time, that a day would come when firearms would be far more advanced and deadly. The intent of the amendment, as I see it, is so that regular citizens like you and I could execute our patriotic duty to overthrow a tyrannical government should it come to pass. Citizens in America have a right and a duty to safeguard against tyranny, and in order to do that, we must have tools of war available.
Personally I do not own a firearm, I would be a danger to the general public with one, but I feel like I have an understanding of the intent of the amendment. If you disagree, I'm cool with that. Freedom.
Peace and Happiness.
and the repubs were like dems and vice versa..haven't you seen "streets of ny" with daniel day lewis?

The states have always had the power over marriage. They are the ones giving out marriage lisences not the Feds. This is why it may come down to a state level issue and reasoning why DOMA could be unconstitutional. The consitution doesnt speciifcally mention marriage. Therefor it can not be assumed to be a "constitutional right". Now I believe anyone should marry anyone so id hope the majority of states would decide for same sex marriage. However the thinking that the supreme court might call this a state level jurisdiction case makes sense.

I want to know why I gotta pay taxes when a deceased relative gifts me a car. Well not me... but my brother.
Inheritances shouldn't be taxed. That is just retarded.

key word: WAS.
that all ended in the 1960's and 1970's when the GOP pursued the southern strategy, aka catering to the bigoted fears of southerners (dixiecrats).
it worked well for a while, but now it is a loser's strategy. demographics are destiny, and you guys are on the wrong side. it's no wonder you want to keep as many people from voting as possible.

Hey I don't argue that we have had some retarded republicans. The republican party has really shifted from it's original focus.
I agree with alot of the things you say about the republicans and their hipocracy.
You have no enemy here. =)

Would love to talk more about this. =) Point me in the right direction.
I am always looking to learn.
(I have never liked any of the "popular" republican candidates. They always come across as boisterous, divisive, or just head up their asses. I really disliked romney. Romney, perry and santorum were the worst this last election.)
Edit: Lol i know you hate having to educate people, so I'll just take my happy ass to the library next week. I need some new reading material.

the southern strategy is what flipped the south from blue to red at the cost of being on the right side of history.

who doesn't hate a biggot? logic is flawed there. my straight mother hates biggots and so does my lesbian girlfriend.
OP if you are worried about the tax burden married gay couples could cause the country then marriage should be outlawed, PERIOD.
idk even as a lesbian i find the topic old and tired on these forums. kind of like a cow chewing on the same cud all day.
if you have heartfelt convictions PLEASE go out and actually DO something. call your political representatives and let them know what you think.
