This is why I have no concerns about this years midterms or 2016. As long as D candidates can stay within striking distance, the inevitable backlash to things Republicans actually say will put them over the top.

True as that may be, it's scary to think that there are people out there who actually believe what these people say.
 
Um, Ablow...

Everytime someone brings up dog marriage in these debates it makes me think they just really want to marry their dog and they're just testing the waters to see if we're all cool with it.
 
Well he's right, but it shouldn't be a negative thing. People should be able to marry anybody or anything they want. If there love is true in their eyes, the government has no right to dictate weather or not people can marry not two, not three, not four, five guys or girls or elephants or a bicycle

What? No, he isn't. What the heck are you going on about?

Please tell me this is a joke post.
 
Yeah! What married gay couple hasn't wanted to include a dog in their relationship once or twice? Peanut butter is more than a delicious food product, it's a way to get your dog to show you how much he loves your dong. And your husband's dong! What kind of dog can resist a peanut butter dong sandwich to seal a love contract between him and you and your homosexual life partner?

Amirite you guys? Guys? I'm so right.

Peanut butter dong sandwich. A perfect combination for a perfect triad.

No he's not right. Love between two consenting adults isn't remotely comparable to one adult loving an object or animal. Jesus Christ.

This is a bad post and you should feel bad. Marriage equality is a great thing, but in no fucking way does gay marriage between consenting adults lead to marriage between a human and an animal (animals can't exactly give consent).

I wonder though, what will happen when we start uplifting animals to our levels of intelligence.
 
I've actually heard this argument before in person. It makes my blood boil. How fuckin stupid can you be. If you are against gay marriage, alright. Chances are I won't agree logically with you. But okay. But how can you even use this as an argument. It's just non-sense.

Except he's not. A dog can not consent to a human. Two grown adults of sane mind can consent.

Erm. No.

A dog has no agency in that situation. You cannot just force an animal to "marry" you and then do with it as you please. Same with any other animal.

"Consenting adults" is key here.
 
I am torn about what to do when the SCOTUS ruling comes down next June.

On one hand, I'd love to be out at City Hall, waiting in line to get married.

On the other hand, being at City Hall means that I wouldn't be able to stay at home and giggle at the theocrats' wailing and gnashing of teeth online and on tv..
 
I'm pretty sure they can, their thought process is just severely fucked up.

Batshit insane levels of fucked up.

That's not even insane or fucked up, it's just stupid and moronic. Don't give them more credit than they deserve. Heck don't give them any credit at all.

I'm gonna treat this seriously because I just can't tell when people are kidding anymore.

I would guess that's several centuries off, at least, and then our notions of personhood and consent will have to be adjusted to fit our new situation. The fact remains that people are generally attracted to other people, not animals. I imagine that will stay true for a very long time.

They're already fucking and you know it! Isn't this deviancy enough?!

Nah bro I watch bitches lick pussy all the time. It ain't no thing.

...except for the whole consent thing.
The only way you would be allowed to marry a bicycle is if that bicycle gives its express written or verbal consent.
And good luck with that.
Bicycles are free spirits who wouldn't want to be tied down by something as mundane as marriage.
 
You should be able to marry anything you are able to own.
That would call for a radical reevaluation of what a relationship is.

Gay couples are fundamentally no different than straight couples. That's the crux of the issue. When you start talking about polyamorous relationships, and especially "relationships" between individuals and animals or objects that can't reciprocate affection or give consent like a human being can, you take the conversation down a different path.

Disgusting! The exhaust pipe is at the back of the vehicle. What kind of deviancy would drive someone to let a car ride them from the front?
 
Yeah, why don't we just let people bang dogs if that's their thing? Ohhhh right, consent. Also, equating gay people with animals again. Nice 'un, Keith

I may have misunderstood what he was trying to insist but I took it as that California for better or worse
better
can now allow for marriage between what people call a spouse weather it be a man,women, or animal. Not that gay marriage leads to it in itself. And for the dog or bicycle giving consent to marriage people would have to find a pastor, boat captain, or somebody crazy enough to do it. But they should be allowed that chance. This is not to diminish homosexual marriage which should be legal. My point is people should be free to marry anybody or anything that they wish. The only problem they would run to is finding someone that would marry them. And if it doesn't break the NAP.

A pastor can't give consent on behalf of another human, much less an animal or inanimate object. Also, marriage confers many legal benefits to couples and has a bunch of social functions that only apply to human relationships, such as connecting families. This is a pretty huge issue in cultures where family and community bonds are sealed or strengthened through marriage. Gay marriage has a place in this traditional scheme. Where do dogs and bicycles fit into that picture?

Gays aren't asking for more rights. They're asking for what heterosexuals already have.

Idiot.
Those uppity gays are so demanding! Why don't STRAIGHT PPL get a pride parade, huh? Equality my left foot!

Its about consent. If there comes a day when dogs and cats can articulate their emotions in the same way two grown ass adults can, then hell yeah they should be allowed to marry.

But why marry a 3DS when you can marry a Vita tho? Vita means life.

Is what you would say if he married a 3DS. Luckily that's just a DSi.

Regardless, people have already started marrying no living objects with no objection. I think there was a woman who married R2D2.
