On June 26, 2015 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the denial of marriage licenses violated the Due Process and the Equal Protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. The ruling made same sex marriage legal in all 50 U.S. States.

@8DMWLTN4yrs4Y
Yes, of course, but acknowledge that this is not the most pressing issue faced by LGBT communities
@8C5STPW4yrs4Y
Same-sex marriage is already legal nationwide and should be treated as a human right rather than a privilege that can be denied.
@9V2ZXQH2mos2MO
i think its wrong in my opinion its not how the world was meant to be made as it is not how it should be and never should have been
@968PG6K2yrs2Y
i dont really care its their body and their own life
@8GYDPCF4yrs4Y
take the government out of marriage, but make it a PERSONAL decision
@8HC8S594yrs4Y
It's 2020. Next question, please.
@8QKZFDZ4yrs4Y
Doesn't matter to me. Everyone has the right to their own marriage.
@8G8YJQZ4yrs4Y
People have freedom, we should not restrain them
No same-sex marriage should never be allowed because it's not right and when they can't have kids or they can create diseases by doing things
@9WGXHQL4wks4W
I think you get married to the person you love even if it´s the same sex or not. If you love them then you should not care what other people think about you.
@9KLW5CW9mos9MO
Same sex marriage should have nothing to do with any institution, it is between those getting married and that is it.
@9FSLGWY1yr1Y
Well even though I don't neccesarily think it's a good thing for society and will have a impactful future on the future generations I think real muslims, real christians and real jews should have the right to refuse and protest against lgbt completely just as modern lgbt protests and even mockes religion.
@9FJ3PJ51yr1Y
@9FGH4X81yr1Y
same sex marriage is down right wrong. if you think it is okay to do your opinions are worth nothing.
@9B5QPTL2yrs2Y
People should marry who they want and shouldn't be judged
Same sex marriage is a twisted and entirely wrong action that can negatively affect future generations.
I believe that we live in a fallen world. I do not believe same-sex marriage should happen, although I believe that everyone has free will and chooses for themselves what to do. I believe that same-sex marriage is not how God designed it to be in His perfect plan.
@8VYHFVL3yrs3Y
I personally do not care if people of the same sex get married, it does not affect my personal life what so ever therefore I will respect the decisions of those who decide to.
@8YLYMX63yrs3Y
Yes, people should be able to marry whomever they love regardless
@8R32NKW4yrs4Y
yes, people should be allowed to marry whether they are the same gender or not
@9GF3PPV1yr1Y
Same sex couples need to have more rights regarding their identity and have to pay less taxes! They also need to be protected by the government against any discrimination and homophobic people! I also value marriage between them and think that they need to have the same marriage rights as hetrosexuals!
@9ZJ8HS7Conservative1wk1W
Ah yes, the Satan-filled and brainwashed deserves to have no taxes and an entire mob of police to protect them from someone who dares to commit the disgusting atrocity of disagree with them. Look how far we've come as a society! Progress!
@8SCVY6T4yrs4Y
Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a decision between two people
@9VY8XFT1mo1MO
This is a normality in every day society, so to-reverse gay marriage would be moving backwards, I feel the question is no longer relevant.
@9M2277R7mos7MO
My religion does not support same sex marriage so I would be against it. Ultimately It does not concern me what people do with their lives so I genuinely would not care either way.
@9JWL8D6Conservative9mos9MO
Legally the government should not have any control over marriage but churches and the regular meaning of marriage is with man and women.
@9JWFXKR9mos9MO
Legally in terms of Law yes, but with the church Marriage has always been man and woman, though the government should not have the ability to control.
already legal and hell yeah
@9F7VDWM1yr1Y
Homophobic and transphobic B)
@9F5KMPV1yr1Y
Same sex marriage is morally equivalent to opposite sex marriage. It's none of the government business the gender of a couple getting married. I support marriage. Marriage can be between any two consenting adults, a man and a man, a woman and a woman , a man and a woman, a genderfluid and a woman, a enby and a man. Not allowing queer marriage is discriminatory.
@8Q2TQ744yrs4Y
I don't support the legalization of same sex marriage. However, I don't judge those who do.
@9H4KM541yr1Y
Same sex marriage is wrong, I am tired of pride and anything to do with lbgtq, I don't want to see the rainbow flag anymore or rainbow crosswalks. The rainbow belongs to God not homosexuals. Tired of having the issue shoved in my face on television radio. Homosexuals should not be allowed to have children. There should be a mom and dad in the home so children a good upbringing
@8TFC6XQ3yrs3Y
Yes, and churches/other services should NOT be allowed to discriminate.
@8PXF8RM4yrs4Y
@8TTG27N3yrs3Y
I believe my gay should be able to get married and protect there legal pot plants with there firearms
@8Q6HDRW4yrs4Y
No, I don't support it, though I won't fight it.
@9VLLTX61mo1MO
I don't really care what people do ! I just think a man and a women should be together in my opinoin
@9MCJ3PYConservative6mos6MO
In my personal opinion marry who you want because love is love but dont make it your personality and dont start pushing it onto other people because theirs a lot of people i know who would get married tot he same gender and just start pushing it onto other people (like man keep it to yourself)
@9M554FP7mos7MO
I don't support it but it shouldn't be illegal, and LGBTQ shouldn't be shoved down other people's throats, same thing vice versa
@9K5RHCF9mos9MO
i don’t support it nor deny it. i simply don’t care as long as ALL set religions are not forced to continue providing ceremonies for these marriages.
@9JSPMXF10mos10MO
Yes, but instead call it marriage to indicate that the bond of love between two people isn't different depending on gender/sex
@9J4LJ4S10mos10MO
Its not up to me to decide, its a personal decision based on personal beliefs. Government should not be involved in marriage.
@9J4DGWJ10mos10MO
If religion doesn't allow it, it should be respected. It doesn't have to be a law in government, they can do their own thing.
@9HK64NQ 12mos12MO
Yes, but should not be entitled to same stuff, but rather allow the other side to decide if they like this happening at they're church, etc.
@9H34J25Libertarian1yr1Y
Take the government out of marriage it is a decision only between the two people, up to each religion whether they want to allow it
@8PPY29H4yrs4Y
Yes of course this shouldn’t even have to be “legalized” in the first place!!
@8CX4TNN4yrs4Y
Sure, why not? This can be legal. I see no reason as to why it should be illegal. If they are truly in love, then I say let it be (They can marry)!
@9B97J5G2yrs2Y
Government/religion should not have a say in marriage
@8TW6FNG3yrs3Y
Same sex marriage IS ALREADY LEGAL in Canada, so it should no longer be a question or issue. It had been decided. Done.
@8SKZLX44yrs4Y
Its neither the governments decsion nor the churches
@8VLKTVSNew Democratic3yrs3Y
yes, the government has no right to say who can marry who
@8VCFX923yrs3Y
same sex marriage should be a persons decision not the governments
@8VQNKLP3yrs3Y
i do not support gay people but let them do what they want to do.
@8VMFKNC3yrs3Y
i just dont really care they can do what they want
@8FZ3W8ZConservative4yrs4Y
I am fine with excepting people for who they are. I will not judge it but as myself i will choose to stay straight. As in my religion it says love someone no matter what in the christianity religion.
@8GB29G64yrs4Y
i dont really care what other people do i personally wouldn't but if its what makes you happy go for it.
@8SHGXN54yrs4Y
I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman. However, I don't think that it is the governments or my place to prohibit same sex marriage because they don't have the same belief system
@9892VN4Conservative2yrs2Y
The same gender can marry but can't get treated specially because of it, everyone is the same at the end of the day.
@kuyugomodiLiberal4yrs4Y
It isn't me I can care less
@8R2T5MF4yrs4Y
only if its lesbian because theyre hot asians on milf hub
@9ZJ8HS7Conservative1wk1W
No, and make the government recognize marriage for only a man and a woman.
Absolutely not! Nowadays, the Word of God and the authority of The Church have been completely disregarded, and it fills me with sadness to see just how sick and twisted our world has become. I pray for each and every person who supports this LGBQRST, and hope that they get put onto a path that leads to righteousness and an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior (whether you like it or not).
@9ZH2FNQ1wk1W
God made female and male. a male is supposed to marry a female and a female is supposed to marry a male. same sex marriage should be illegal
I am a bit neutral about it because I respect the right for same sex marriage but I am also a religious person and in my religion homosexual acts is a sin.
@9GK9SQW1yr1Y
I think everyone should do whatever they like, but I don't belive teaching students about LGBTQ things below the age of 17 is not alright. I think evryone should have the freedom to do whatever their values are.
@9GFT99CConservative1yr1Y
It's honestly a situation that is blown way out of proporation, who cares if a dude wants to smack weiners with another dude.
@9G6842V1yr1Y
It is against the bible but my opinion doesn't matter if that is who they're happy with. Churches should be able to refuse the ceremonies.
@9G3LBVG1yr1Y
Yes, I believe that people of the same sex can marry because gender doesn’t matter and because it does not affect anyone in a bad way it is just who people love.
@9G2J3Y71yr1Y
Yes, but introduce civil unions as an options for everyone in Canada like Quebec instead of common law marriage
@9FWTCB21yr1Y
In principle, same-sex couples in a committed relationship should be afforded the same civil advantages as for one between a man and a woman. I would not use the term "marriage" in a civil setting; all civil marriages would be called "civil unions" and "Marriage" would be a term referved for church/religious use.
@9FWMZSC1yr1Y
The marriage should be up to the two spouses, their families and the ideologies they follow with the government providing a family lawyer as an adviser if necessary.
@9FR64MD1yr1Y
Since Canada is secular, people should have the right to do as they please but others should not be forced to agree with the way in which other people live their lives.
@9FMSCZS1yr1Y
no i dont like gay people
@9FMPCV81yr1Y
I don't have anything against it but I don't have an interest in this topic.
@9FM9QN91yr1Y
Yes, if that's the way of life they want then let them be as long as they're happy and not troubling others.
@9FM6M461yr1Y
I don't suppport it but I would not make it illegal
@9FLJLZ3Conservative1yr1Y
Churches the right to deny, make it more of a religious decision overall.
Yes it's their own decisions and they have the right to a marriage
I would say that they should do what they think is right. I’m not against it nor do I support it. If they wish to marry the person they love, regardless of gender, that is up to them and as a bystander, I’ll respect their decision.
@9FDNVC71yr1Y
I do support it but at the same time it is very irrelevant to myself.
@9FD7Z631yr1Y
I don't really care but good for them
@9FBPK491yr1Y
I don’t really care if the same sex marriage wants to get married or not, you do what you want in my opinion, but do I think they should allow same sex marriage, yes, if that’s there right person and want to spend the rest of their life with.
@9F9S3CZ1yr1Y
I do support, and its fine if you are proud of your sexuality but dont make me have to be proud of it.
@9F92WTDConservative1yr1Y
yes they should because people can love who they love and should not be discriminated against that
@9F8WV5D1yr1Y
I don’t support but I don’t discriminate
@9F8V4GB1yr1Y
doesnt matter to me as long as im not affected
@9F85RMJ1yr1Y
Not against it, neither do I support it.
