New York now becomes the sixth state where gays can marry and because of its large population will potentially double the amount of same sex marriages in the US.

Ahhh shit… Well as long as this weirdo don’ other no one and don’t be a center of attention all the time.
could you be more ignorant? the amount of revenue the state (and other states) will generate alone is worth legalizing it. plus i dont understand whats so sacred about marriage seeing that over half of straight marriages end in divorce.

We all have opinions but that doesn’t mean it is not ignorant. We all are capable of ignorant opinions and in this case that was one! Just to think over 40 years ago racism was a ignorant opinion. Let us all take a step forward not backwards.

As Thomas Jefferson Quoted “If it not picks my pocket or breaks my leg what is it to me? “
