Gay marriage is an evil? Wow, I can think of many things much more evil than two loving people wanting to get married. Gay people are not going anywhere. They have been around forever and will be around forever despite the evil done to them in the name of religion, etc. A gay couple may be different than you but that does not mean they deserve any less treatment for who they choose to love. Sorry, but in an equal society, as this site claims to support, two loving unrelated people should be able to decide who they wish to marry and should enjoy all the legal rights of such.

My bad, Jeff. Thanks for pointing out, which only further proves the point that this is not good news for the GOP advocacy of this amendment.

You failed to appropriately emphasize that the poll was only among Republicans. I was called for the poll since I am a registered Republican. When asked by the pollster if I was still a Republican, I responded that I was now Independent, and I was hung-up on.

In a 2012 Gallup poll, 44.2% of Hoosiers identified themselves as or leaning Republican. (A national Gallup poll on January 14, 2014 showed only 25% of Americans identify as Republican now).

So, about half of half of Hoosiers (who answered the poll) support the amendment.

Who gets to pay for all the resulting lawsuits? Everyone.

Sometimes, the party needs to lead on principles and quit running by polls.

If gay marriage isn't an evil the government should stop, nothing is.

When the gays say "marriage equality," they mean it. Once gay marriage is enshrined, they are going to shove it down our throats and demand full equality of it.

Lawsuits will be brought, school curricula revised, and the media will be awash in gay marriage equality.

Though people who would be gay married will only be a fraction of one percent of the population, they will demand that their <1% stands "equally" in all depictions with >99% of the marriages.

Gay marriage normalizes abnormal conduct.

A scant few noisome urban dwellers have greatly leveraged their power and are fast destroying this country.
