I've made up my mind for tomorrow's vote....
Just listened to back-to-back interviews on Wisconsin Public Radio. Opposing viewpoints on this subject. Two different interviewers and guests. Both interviewers seemed sympathetic to their respective guest.
Based on this thread, my life experience, and the interviews I just heard, :
I will Vote "No".
I hope you will do the same.
Here are my reasons:
If you vote no, nothing changes (and gay marriage is still not legal for those concerned about that issue).
If you vote yes, you may make it possible for companies and government entities to deny fundamental rights to unmarried individuals (no matter what their sexual preference)! These fundamental rights include medical power of attorney and healthcare benefits.
We do not need a Constitutional Amendment that accomplishes nothing except making it possible to deny anyone, gay or straight, fundamental legal rights.
That's it in a nutshell. Please vote no.
Regards,
Keith
Bravo...once again I'm pleased to see intelligent respectful conversation on theBubbler from very opposite position holders.
