WRONG
Please, please, please, read my post again. Obviously you didn't read. My idea of "majority opinion" does not apply because the majority of people had NO OPINION on slavery at the time. prior to the 1800's, the only people that cared about slavery were the slaver owners; therefore, they had their way untill someone in the north actually thought about slavery as an issue.
Gay marriage is different, most people have an opiniion, and lo and behold, it's against gay marriage.
I'm sorry but I'm not sure if anyone is buying the idea that they didn't have an opinion on it. Seriously? That's what you are saying? People were being OWNED and you don't have an opinion on it? BS.
Besides, the point I was making was that majority opinion has nothing to do with what is right and wrong if you believe in basic human rights.
