Iowa and NOM...

I will most likely never understand the people in this country. I've yet to understand why it is that so much of the stuff in this country is "majority rule", which oftentimes means "whoever has the most money". Can we point out events in the past when the majority was oh-so right? I mean, one instance that comes to mind proving the opposite is The Holocaust...C'mon, no one in their right mind would jump on the bandwagon with Hitler, right? Oh wait, all kinds of people jumped on his bandwagon and for the longest time, no one gave a flying rat's ass that he was murdering Jews, the handicapped, homosexuals, and any one else he didn't like. It wasn't until he was taking over all of Europe that people started going, "Wait a second...He can't make Germany a super power. He can't own all of Europe!" How about here in the United States when the majority decided to make African-Americans second-class citizens? Was that okay? Last time I checked it wasn't put to a vote on whether or not African-Americans were allowed to vote or if they should be allowed to have equal rights. No, it took the Supreme Court to say, "Wait just a cotton-picking second here..." Only once they said that no where in the Constitution does it say that only white men get all the rights did the African-Americans get their equal rights.


Here we are, what like 40 years later, and we're still fighting the same battles over and over again. Americans are so dead set on making someone a second-class citizen that it doesn't even matter who it is. You hear people bitch and whine about the undocumented workers. Dude, whatever. They're called "Undocumented Workers" because they're working!! How about we worry about the documented non-workers who work the system for free shit? Just a thought...But I digress. There's always going to be some group of people that's going to get the short of the stick and in this case it's the homosexuals.
Yeah, people think that their votes should count for something, but let's face it...they don't. I voted, along with a lot of people I know (except for a certain woman who gave birth to me, but I won't name her), that gay marriage be allowed in California during that whole Prop 8 bull%*#@. It didn't matter though because the "majority" had spoken and said, "NO WAY!" Well, I say, "EFF THAT!" I've said it before and I'll say it again...I don't understand why people are allowed to vote on what they think is right for me and others like me. I didn't get to vote to say whether or not I agree with heterosexual marriages. The fact of the matter is that so many people worry that homosexuals are going to destroy the "sanctity" of marriage. What destroys the sanctity of marriage is infidelity, abuse, and neglect....Not homosexuals marrying their partners. Plus, you heteros are the ones with people like Britney Spears who goes to Vegas and marries her best friend for a whopping 36-hour marriage. (Or whatever the hell it was.) Yes, but you'd better watch out for us gays...We'll destroy everything our sinful hell-bound hands touch...


What brought this all up was an article I read yesterday. Check it out: Stupid NOM
Did you read it? If not, go read it and then come back. Where in that article does it say that there was a group of Iowans seeking help from NOM? I don't believe such a statement exists. It appears that these idiots (for a lack of a better term) have decided to just march into Iowa and start throwing around their ideas. The article even says that that politician, Steve Burgmeier didn't even know these people were backing him. Of course he'll take the free endorsement, but no one came to him and said, "Hey, you hate gays? We do too!! Let's join forces!" and then toasted their collaboration by drinking the blood of virgins. So, why the hell are these people there? Here's a video from youtube.com where you can see their advertisement. (It's put out by a group opposing them, so they provide an intro to the advertisement.) Idiotic NOM Of course judges are deciding the fate of things. Why, you ask? Because it's not clearly stated in the state's constitution. NOM wants to change that by doing another Prop 8. They even said in a statement after the whole California fiasco that they were going to go to all the states who legalized it and they won't stop until they make it illegal. So, watch out Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut etc...NOM is coming to get you!!


At the end of the day, you just have to ask yourself, what does it matter? Would it really hurt anybody if I were to marry a girl--er, um, I mean Phoenix? (She's going to kill me!!) What I mean is, is someone going to suddenly start finding the Seven Seals signifying the end of the world as we know it? I can just see it now, "Gay couples are now able to marry anywhere in the United States---This just in. We now have world wars, famine, earthquakes in places we've never had them before, and a man claiming to be the Antichrist taking over Canada." Seriously folks...It's not the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine.) (What's amusing is that song just came on on my iTunes, which I have on random play. Gay marriage should not be voted on by the people because there are far too many non-thinking, Bible thumping, "I'll drink the Kool-Aid" kinds of people out there who should not be able to vote on these issues. It's a Civil Rights issue, not a voter issue. I'll let it all go when someone shows me where it states in the Constitution that homosexuals are not allowed to have equal rights...*steps down off soap box*
