Quote:A nationwide CNN poll completed last week found that by a margin of 64-32, those surveyed said gay marriages should not be recognized in law as valid, with the same rights as traditional marriages.i think this is the part that i find most disturbing. and probably why the amendment has a good chance of being passed. i guess because most of the people i come in contact with share my views on issues like this, it's easy to forget that for each one of us there's 2 people who disagree. and they're the ones more likely to go out and vote, and write letters to their reps and call and complain when there's a boob on tv.
but so anyway, if it's a constitutional amendment can the states still pass their own laws allowing it? or does it mean it's just outright banned throughout the country?
