Proposal 8
I have read the summary, analysis, and arguments surrounding Proposal 8 in California and feel that what happened there is wrong. I will not say whether I am for or against gay marriage, that is not the issue for me. What is the issue is that people were allowed to think and believe that they were making progress in their fight towards equal treatment and being able to marry same sex partners. For that right to be given and taken on technicalities is wrong because of the way that it will affect the lives of these people. While it is said that even though they will no longer be married, a domestic parternship is still the same, obviously to them it is not the same thing.

Brittany I have to agree with you on this issue. I will say that I am not for same sex marriage, but i still feel that this situation is wrong because of the way that it has negatively affected and practically ruined some people's lives. Unexpectantly some that felt they were progressing with their lives woke up one day and everything about them and their families were changed. This to me is just unethical.
