The Terminator will veto gay marriage bill.

Finally Arnold flexes his muscles.

Published on September 8, 2005 By Moderateman In US Domestic

Reported today, the governer of California, is listening to the WILL OF THE PEOPLE and will veto the bill allowing gay marriage .

California will not become the first state to be forced to recognize gay marriage from other states or countries either.

Good for you arnold, the will of the people must rule.

At no time should 4% of the people MAKE the other 96% accept anything.

Over six million voted to ban gay marriage five years ago, proposition 22 was overturned by one liberal activist judge, legislating from the bench.

One judge slapped 6 million voters right in the face by calling prop. 22 Unconstitutional.

The will, or shall we say, the majority, are a bunch of shameless homophobes.

If a referendum is going to be overcome, it should be by another referendum, or in the most extraordinary cases by the Supreme Court. It's silly to let the officials elected by the people who voted in the referendum somehow negate the will of the people who voted them into office.

It is evident that Arnold is not a politician. He cares about his constituents too much.

I AM O'NALD!!! I WILL TERMINATE THIS BILL!

I actually think the bill is correct. Goverment should not say who you can be married to. Goverment and marriage should only go as far as reconizing that you want to be with this person ie this person being any sex.

It is such a hot topic as some feel it will further desroy the family unit. Personally, I think other things destroy the family unit (pre-packaged music, tv, radio, advertising, both parents working over 40 hours a week) way more than 2 men or 2 women living together and having a child with them.

Nevertheless, it was put to a vote, and then a judge of course said unconstitutional (because it is) but the reality is that the people voted it down and being force feed the measure seems out of line. I agree with the veto, but I also agree with the judge.

Gay marriage will have to be reconized but this is a issue that can not be forced, pushed or shoved, but it will happen in time.

How is the bill unconstitutional? While it is certainly unfair and discriminatory towards a minority of the population, we're not dealing with constitutionally guaranteed rights.

That is not very comforting. They are still a bunch of shameless homophobes. Besides, based on who's standards is CA the most liberal?

the bill is unconstitutional because it actually does discriminate against a particular segment of society. Per the constitution, all people are guaranteed equal access under the law. This bill denies such equity, and worse yet, based on some religious values, which also takes it to the realm of separation of church and state.

Equal protection... not equal access. Equal access doesn't exist for anyone. They are granted equal base rights. Marraige is not a right, inheritance issues are not rights, they are privledges that are not necessary to leading a safe and successful life in the US.

You realize I support gay marraiges, but I'm under no delusion that we're talking about a constitutional right here.
