The poll is stupid.

There are gays who oppose same sex marriage. Also, the vast majority of people who support same sex marriage are heterosexual. Remember, gays make up only 3.5% of the population and yet around 50% of the population supports same sex marriage.

This poll is nothing but a false dichotomy that shows a very poor and simplistic perception of reality.

As far as who is more or less tolerant is a matter of subjective perception. Anyone who does not agree with your position is likely to be seen as "intolerant". There is not exactly a standard by which to measure tolerance that is meaningful or quantifiable.

This is better worded. Your previous post just made you seem like a ranting moron who hates anyone who disagreed with you. My apologies.

It constantly surprises me that libertarians such as yourself sell themselves out to the religious whack job right.

I don't understand how I was selling out in anyway in my previous post?

Get ready my right-wing friend....get ready. Whether by SCOTUS decision or by the ballot, gay marriage is coming. Haven't you been paying attention? Even during the last year the wave has grown huge...you even have your Republican friends dropping like dominoes. You will either prepare or be caught off guard, but just like inter-racial marriage, gay marriage will become the law of the land very very soon. America is too good to not get it right.

How many state laws were overturned by SCOTUS in 1967? I know ours was.

Before my time but it isn't going to happen here. The 4 conservatives want to toss the issue and Ginsberg is an incrementalist in all things so there is your "Not going to be a landmark decision" majority

Libertarians align themselves to the religious right by voting conservative as they often do.

You are living in the past. Look at the exponential shift in America's attitudes toward gay marriage in the last 5 years. Look at the HUGE shift in just the last year. Sorry....but America is recognizing the bigotry and injustice involved in denying gay marriage...in much the same way that America recognized it was wrong in denying women the right to vote, inter-racial marriage and other denial of civil rights. You are on the losing end of history. Gay marriage will soon be a reality, be it by SCOTUS decision or at the polls...either way the war is over and your side has lost.

So you have nothing basically. You claim that the Ballot Box will determine it and when the ballot box has gone against you, you create mirages in the desert. You were wrong. It will be the Courts or it will be what we have :2wave:

All 13 colonies allowed slavery. Just because it's popular doesn't make it right - just like your marriage, which was illegal in Missouri in 1966.

Which has nothing to do with nothing. I was married to and Asian in 1966 so nice try. There were zero restrictions when I got married.

what's hilarious is that when the numbers are against them it's "just because it's popular doesn't make it right". but when the number are with them, suddenly numbers matter
 
SSM and Interracial mariage have nothing to do with each other.....Just becasue you lefties keep saying it does not make it so.
 
what, on review of the relative intolerance of bisexuals, in the poll?

You weren't married in any state. You were married in South Korea, where marriages between whites and Asians were not restricted. Far more importantly, you were married by the U.S. General Counsel, who operates under the civil code of whatever country you are married in. Now, had you been married in the great Conservative state of Mississippi, the story would have been far different. However, you're far too dishonest of a senior citizen to admit that.

Well obviously I knew that. However when you're a dishonest and lying senior citizen, you don't point that out. I showed him why his nonsense didn't apply. Navy Pride didn't get married under an American civil code but whatever code the South Koreans used. So for him to claim there were "zero" restrictions only applies under Korean law, not American state laws. Many of those "41 states" he keeps citing wouldn't have recognized his marriage in 1966 and there's no way he's stupid enough to not know that.
