Orientation is biological. It's not a choice. Some people are just born wired differently than others. Why would someone choose a life of oppression, of fear and of intolerance? They don't. There is no choice.
So why should anyone be punished for a biological predisposition? Because that's what disallowing gay marriages is, a punishment. They are being denied Constitutional rights - because the Constitution has no definition for marriage.
Two people of the same gender getting married in the eyes of the goverment isn't going to hurt anyone else. It doesn't affect anyone else. All it does is afford them the same basic rights as heterosexual married couples. There is no logical reason to deny them that.

Exactly! I really don't understand why people are so against gay marriage. Gay people aren't asking for religious sanctioned weddings, just government sanctioned ones. They're asking for basic human rights as afforded by the Constitution of the United States of America.
Massachussetts has allowed gay marriages for a year. And nothing has changed, other than gay people now get married. It doesn't affect anyone but the people getting married.
