Well there's a difference between gay slurs and one's opinion on gays. I use gay slurs all the time, whether it's in school, at work, at hockey etc, but that doesn't mean I'm against gays, or that I don't support gay marriage. It just means that I'm not politically correct in the slightest in my personal life.

Great. This is now a non-anonymous poll.

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

Yeah, maybe if people are ashamed of their opinions, they should maybe give some thought as to why they're ashamed of them, and mabye think about changing them.

+1 to the 'why not' crowd.

If they are dumb enough to get married, then why not? Just kidding wife!!!!!

They should be able to get married, who the hell cares?

Just like good ol' times in the USSR.

Vote freely but the KGB will arrest you for non-related and purely incidental matters!

Poll added, I left out any third option this time, yes is yes, no is no, if you answer "yes but" then that's no I guess.

[jayswin]

Wooohooo, 5-0 so far for the "tolerance" crowd.

[jayswin]

12-0! C'mon non-bigotry!

[Nuje]

13-0 after my vote. And for a laugh....language caution, it's Lewis Black.

Thanks, I really didn't wanna see a third option because I mean legally married not common law or civil union or whatever the case may be.

Blackjack!

[Hemi-Cuda]

i've made my views on this quite well known. it should be legal and i'm thankful our previous government were more enlightened than the majority of our southern neighbors. and anyone who votes no to this poll is a bigot, whether they will admit it or not, as it's discrimination at it's purest form

[puckluck]

28-0 now...Regehr's number is 28

Coincidence? I think not.

34 to 2. In your face "Albertans are red-necked bigots" stereotype!

Or maybe it's just the internet forum frequenting population tends to be a more younger/more liberal demographic?

Kids are stupid, people grow up and times change. I used to use 'gay' as in insult up until I moved into residence for university and the inclusive language policy made me think about who I might be hurting. Now I regret that I didn't stop sooner. Now I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum and it really bugs me when people use 'gay' in a derogatory manner.

[Sly]

I said no.
