I don't think it should be illegal but we definitely should not call it "marriage."

Marriage is a biblical thing between a man, a woman, and God. There is no other combination for marriage.

Marriage should be about staying with the one you love and being committed to them, religion should not interfere. We are all people, we should be allowed to marry the ones we love no matter what, taking it away is taking away human rights.

 @9G2HSYDLiberalfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

Marriage is no longer a biblical concept, it is a part of the law. A marriage is not just for religious people. Everyone should the right to marry who they want under the law.

 @9FZNS8Vfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

This is a purely semantic argument, if you want to make a designation between religious weddings and wedding for the sake of state that's fine but not really a serious issue.

But when two people love each other, nonetheless of race, gender, ethnicity, I think that they should get married. I dint really believe in “marriage between just man and woman” . Anyone who wants ti get married CAN get married. I dint think same sex marriage should be illegal anyways because even though its not really know, you’re still deprived people from their rights.

Where in the definition of marriage is gender specified? And if your source is the Christian Bible, why should that be a source of legal policy when we’re not a religious state?

 @9FX9RDVdisagreed…1yr1Y

The definition of marriage consistently changes, you can go into a government building with no ceremony and get a marriage license. It used to be part of a land transaction. Let any consenting adult choose their marriage partner

 @9FXGTC2New Democraticfrom New Brunswick  disagreed…1yr1Y

Gay marriage should be legal everywhere’s because it’s love, religion and politics should not get involved in someone’s love life.

 @9FXS5CNConservativefrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

Marriage is a expression of love between two willing people. Obviously, there are biblical ties, but the thought of marriage as a strictly religious expression is archaic. Marriage for people now is an expression of love, or to be one under the government's eyes. This argument is incredibly arrogant and moot, as marriages are regularly held outside of churches, between people of a generation where in most cases were raised a certain religion, that have not practiced said religion in years.

 @9G2DXBRagreed…1yr1Y

I think it should be illegal since marriage is strictly supposed to be between a man and a woman and no other combination. There are many vows to abide to when gettting married, in almost all of the holy books like the bible and quran completely disagree with the gay marriage.

 @9FXMRBSfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

If you need a sin to be against the law for you to avoid doing it then turning away from sin and towards God was never a primary goal of yours anyway. If you’re truly in your heart made a Christian and seek God and cast aside your own sinful nature then it shouldn’t matter if it is illegal or legal. Changing the legality of sin doesn’t make it any more or less sinful.

 @9G45VXWfrom Alberta  disagreed…1yr1Y

People can do whatever you want its non of your bissness nore do you have any right to impose on our lives just trying to be in love

Texas Offers Trump 1,400 Acres for His Mass Deportation Dream

Officials in Texas have offered President-elect Trump a 1,400-acre ranch for his mass deportation plan.Dawn Buckingham, land commissioner of the Texas General Land Office, said in a letter to Trump Tuesday that her office was “fully prepared” to work with federal agencies that are going to be involved in Trump’s immigration plan, and specifically deportation.Buckingham offered Trump a 1,402-acre lot in Starr County. The lot is owned by the Texas General Land Office and is roughly 35 miles west of McAllen, Texas.She said the agency is ready to work with the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the U.S. Border Patrol to build a facility on the land for “the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”“I am committed to using every available means at my disposal to gain complete operational security of our border,” Buckingham wrote.The letter and offering of land were first reported by The Texas Tribune. Last month, the state bought the land along the U.S.-Mexico border and has plans to build a wall.In the letter, Buckingham criticized her predecessor for not allowing a border wall to be built on the property. Those actions “enabled cartel members and violent criminals to sexually abuse migrant women and children on this land,” she said.On Monday, Trump signaled he would declare an immigration national emergency and use military assets to support his mass deportation plan when he returns to office.
