No on Prop 8

Usually my blogs are about an article that I have recently read, and my opinions on them. But this blog post is going to be different. Since the elections are coming up, I figured I would share my opinions on a matter that personally has been getting to me. Prop 8. Should gay marriage be legal or not.

To me this seems like a power trip. The people who want gay marriage to be banned are getting a kick out of taking away peoples fundamental rights. Some people I have talked to have said, "Being gay is a disease, they can't help it." Well if thats the case, then people should be able to call in sick for being gay; and they can't. If being gay is a disease, why don't they have a pill for it? Because it's not. Since when is a lifestyle choice a disease, or to be shunned upon, that's like saying a painter can't take pictures, it just doesn't make sense to me.

Everybody says that love is sacred, some people never find it. So why are people punishing the people who find love? Love is love, it shouldn't matter whether its two girls, two guys, or a man and woman. If you are lucky enough to find love, so be it.

No on prop 8. Don't make life a power trip, don't keep us stuck in recession.
