Default Anonymous Poll: Should homosexuals be allowed to get married?

Canadian laws already allow homosexuals to be married, but do you support the current law?

The poll will be anonymous, so you don't have to worry about being ridiculed by the masses.

A mod should be making this into a poll soon. Thanks in advance.

Or "that's what he said," depending on how you vote on this topic.

So do I. I think if two people are in love then what's the big deal? let them get married.

But some people will not post their opinions on such a touchy subject, and I'd like to look at the numbers.

I don't really care one way or the other. It doesn't offend me, but I don't feel it's important enough for me to fight for... or fight against. So sure, whatever turns your crank I guess.

No offense to you Flameswin, but I think that is why people don't post their opinions on such a subject.

Not saying it's your fault or anything, because your comment is probably true, but no one wants to be called a bigot.

Take it from me, anonymous polls, while they can be hot, should always be taken safely.

Bah, people can still post their opinions on the subject. Nobody should be afraid to post an opinion because someone else posts something harsh.

It's the internet, nobody's going to do any harm to you because of an opinion....well expect for ErikEstrada, you have to watch out for him, he will quite literally make you cowar back into your vehicle.

People shouldn't be afraid, but the reality is there must be more people who disapprove of it, and just don't want to get into the discussion. Maybe people that are known on here who own businesses and don't want to be looked at as homophobic or whatever it may be.

I read some threads about homosexuals, and it's always the same 10 people posting among themselves. There must be a reason to that. You get the odd people that really don't care what people think of them like Mikey_the_redneck and Peter12.

I just find it really weird that gay slurs were used so openly when I went to school and it seemed most people were against gays, but then I join CP and it seems that everyone approves of gay marriage or the people against it just don't like discussing the subject.

Why not? It has no effect on my life who somebody wants to marry. Go nuts! (Or tacos depending on the gender)

If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with.


...I don't know why, but that just popped into my head.
