Deja Vu

During the upcoming election there is a proposition, known as amendment 2, that is causing some controversy. It states that marriage must be between a man and a women. Some people don't understand what there is to think about. I ask you, who are we to tell people who they can and can't love, and then discriminate against them. This is not any different that what happened centuries ago when the government and churches discriminated against African Americans. Its like we target those who are different, by color, gender, or sexuality. So I ask you when you go to vote in a few weeks who is this amendment really going to hurt. Not you! Its going to hurt those who can't marry the ones they love and then in turn can't adopt children, can't get their partners benefits, and at some times can't even be in the hospital room with their partner because they are legally not family!
