USA Today Opinion - Gay Marriage

This week on Twitter, people sounded off over the debate on gay marriage. Gay marriage was a big topic, with its legalization in Washington state and an appeals court overturn of Proposition 8 in California.

  1. U.S. appeals court just struck down Calif. gay marriage ban. Do you agree with the decision? Use #tellusatoday to reply
  2. @USATOpinion #tellusatoday Marriage is licensed by govt because it is a civil contract. Religions can still decide their own internal laws.
  3. #tellusatoday If God is Love, how can love be wrong. Love should never be voted on or legislated. It should be FREE for EVERYONE.
  4. #tellusatoday banning gay marriage is no different than having a separate but equal clause, equality & happiness are fundamental rights!
  5. @USATOpinion I think it's great and important. The law was discrimination, plain and simple. #tellusatoday
  6. Here's what the rest of the nation is saying about gay marriage.

  7. RT @RickSantorum: ... freedom makes our country great. I understand that. Unfortunately, Obama doesn't. <so why dont u support gay marriage?
  8. RT @darcyspencer: Equality Maryland urging residents to email their state senators, telling them to support the gay marriage bill
  9. RT @revelandriot: Megadeths Dave Mustaine opposes gay marriage cuz he's "Christian." We oppose Dave Mustaine because he sounds like a muppet when he sings.
  10. @RickSantorum You understand freedom? How do you explain your opposition to gay marriage, abortion, contraception, etc.?!
