You're against gay marriage because giving them more options to decide how to pursue their personal relationships reduces their liberty? What?!
My poor analogy of what I think P12 is trying to say is, the City of Edmonton.

Imagine if there was a law that said gays were not allowed to live in Edmonton. Many would be upset and saying it is unfair, and that they should be able to choose where to live, just like straight people.

P12 seems to be arguing that Edmonton sucks, and that they would in fact be worse off by living in Edmonton.

Essentially the harm caused by limiting their rights is less than the harm caused by living in Edmonton, therefore limiting their rights is morally the right thing to do.

/lame analogy
