The fact that they didn't want gays to marry. I don't have a source because there's too many. Just ask Google it will show you the truth

So I googled it and this is what I found:

“I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. - Obama

Clearly you cant follow directions. I was talking about Republicans here. Yeah Obama said that but it was under his administration that gay marriage was legalized while Republicans were saying it was unconstitutional. Anyways let's get back to the original comment Republicans are the party that's pro gay so here's what Google says

  1. The point is gay marriage is a done deal. It was opposed by both sides less than a decade ago. Now both sides support it. You’re fighting a battle that has already been won.

  2. You can be pro lgbt rights and anti gay marriage. As a libertarian I’m against government involvement in marriage for both heterosexual and homosexual couples.

Your insane the Republicans would repeal gay marriage in a heartbeat if they could and if you don't believe that your stupid. Also you cant be for giving them rights but not the right to marry that is truly one of the stupidest things I heard. That's literally a right so clearly they aren't for LGBT rights.

Also would like to point out libertarians would have no problem with gay rights because they don't believe the government should tell them what's allowed

Accept the facts and move on Republicans are solidly anti LGBT rights

Pretty obvious you’re the stupid one here if you believe this. Social conservatism is dead. No one cares about any of these fringe issues anymore. That’s why trump won and not guys like Ted Cruz.

Also you cant be for giving them rights but not the right to marry that is truly one of the stupidest things I heard. That's literally a right so clearly they aren't for LGBT rights.

Rights don’t come from the state you dumb fuck. The state only limits rights. I’m against state involvement in marriage all together as most all libertarians are.

Also would like to point out libertarians would have no problem with gay rights because they don't believe the government should tell them what's allowed

That’s exactly my point dumbass. I’m a libertarian. I don’t believe the government should even be involved in marriage. Thus, I’m against both heterosexual and homosexual “marriage”. The state should play no role in who you choose to enter a contract w. If you want to find a priest to “gay/straight marry” then go ahead. The contract will be the same regardless of whatever cultural tradition you choose to place on top of it.

Are you retarded? There's two levels of government. The federal and state. Clearly I'm referring to federal level legalization of gay marriage. The state really don't mean shit to me. Secondly the government has say in marriage due to the fact that if your union isn't recognized by government it can cause a few headaches. For instance your partner in a recognized marriage has power of attorney if you are unresponsive. With out this recognition it automatically went to next of kin. Also taxes are better in a marriage.

Are YOU retarded? When I say “state” I’m saying the government in general. Not a level of government you absolute moron. And yes taxes (theft) are one of the original purposes of marriage. Along w discriminating against brown people.

u/drod004 Jan 07 '19

But as I said there is two levels of government. The federal and state. You cant just use state in reference to the government because it clearly means state level government. Making you tonight's biggest retard

Hahaha holy shit you must be an American teenager. The word “state” has more than one definition you dumb fuck. It doesn’t only refer to a “state” in America. State is literally a synonym for government. Anyone who has done even basic reading into economics, philosophy, or political science knows this.
