It's sounds like the majority agrees, as for as the original topic goes. Banning same sex marrige is unconstitutional and bull shit.

We are going off on a tangent and arguing a word. The original topic is arguing a ban that would take away rights from lawful tax paying citizens.

And yes, it's a tool that the Religious right uses and a term the GOP uses to entice minorities. Black males feel awkward voting pro-homosexuality. I've heard plenty of interviews w/ black folks that have been convinced to vote against it and become pro-right because of this one topic...and these are interviews with NPR and other non-partisan sources.

The original argument is BANNING it....OUTLAWING it...making same sex couples illegal.
