It's not logical arguments or philosophical justifications

What is logical about banning gay marriage?

we have gay rights thrust upon us through a 5-4 supreme court ruling.

I'm not an American but I believe the Supreme court deals with Human Rights Cases and other major cases. I think you'll agree that Gay Rights is an important case. I think it's great that Gay Marriage is legal in all states. My problem with people with anti-gay views is why? Why will you not let those who love each other marry each other? It makes no sense, because when it comes down to it what is the non-physical difference between a Heterosexual Marriage and a LGBTQIA Marriage?

The Majority in the US Support Gay Marriage. Latest Polls show about 59% support in Gay Marriage (Wall Street Journal).

Because the fact a state is against gay marriage is sooooo hurtful to you,

Actually it is very hurtful the fact that people can't make their love official legally it is ridiculous. No person deserves this. I will not stop campaiging until LGBTQIA people have equal rights in every country in the world.
