Should Rainbows Have The Right?


One of the biggest issues of the world; should gays be allowed to marry? Is it right? Or is it wrong to society to go against nature?

Some states in the United States have passed laws saying same sexes can marry or cannot marry. In the US, fourteen states allow marriages of the same sex, and I support that 100%. Michigan though, is not on the list. The reason why I am not sure but we should pass the law. A recent incident brought this to my attention; In Cape Town, South Africa two men were arrested for trying to put on a gay wedding ceremony and were arrested on the spot. They have received fourteen years in jail for trying to make an official day of when two humans decided to spend the rest of their lives with each other. I don’t think that’s right at all, people should have the freedom to be with whoever they want whether or not they are male or female with the same partners. This article from newser has terrible statements; “After telling the men that he wished to protect the public from ‘people like you,’ the judge gave the maximum sentence possible for unnatural acts and gross indecency.” The judge does not have the right to talk to the men like that, whether it’s a law or not there is such thing as common courtesy to others. If I was there to witness, my statement would be, “If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say it at all.”
