Those were some entertainingly abysmal arguments right there. Especially the last one. That either showed an incredible lack of ability to think ideas through or just how desperate the anti-marriage-equality side is.
"Why should gay people have to account for anyone who is ever going to want to get married after they get the right to marry? When women fought for suffrage, no one was like, 'Well what if one day a dog wants to vote?'" — Jon Stewart
Last time I checked. LGBT folks, by law, are required to pay taxes. They should be able to partake in the civil service to marry their significant other!
To think otherwise, just shows your stupidity and lack of a decent education
"A 70 year old man is capable of having children still and we want to keep that in the marriage" So are you proposing he dumps his 70 year old girlfriend who he wants to marry for someone younger? Women can't procreate naturally at 70 or do you not understand simple biology?
How did we get stupid people in the Supreme Court? Oh right, Bush was in charge and appointed religious republicans….. Please vote, we deserve better, much better.

Marriage was created by religion and should have been kept that way. When it became tied to things such as insurance, hospital visitation, apartment fees and so many other things, it became a secular thing. Take those out of the equation and the religious can have it back, but until then, it's a secular thing!
To paraphrase the point of a tedx talk I just enjoyed watching, government should just get the hell out of marriage altogether. As long as there's informed consent, let people form whatever family structures they want to form.

70+ year-olds having children? Does he know nothing of human biology?
Who the fuck cares if homos wanna get married why does it concern you?

The sad thing is, people did bring up that dog argument for women's suffrage.
It's actually funny to watch people try and make arguments against gay marriage
Weak arguments alright

If you hate gay people just because they're gay, you're either stupid or ignorant or both, period.

That attorney is a closet homo.
Canada has had legal gay marriage for nearly a decade now and we seem to have avoided this mythical slippery slope….

If gay people aren't allowed to get married then straight people shouldn't be allowed to get divorced.
Let's shut all this shit down.
