    "OMG OMG OMG THEY WANT TO TEACH MY CHILDREN BEING GAY IS OK?!?!?!"

    Video officially ignored for making such an offensive comment.

    It makes me sad that they can use the same lies over and over, like churches being forced to marry couples or schools brainwashing children by bringing them to lesbian teachers weddings.

    Yea, sorry to burst THAT bubble but there is NO freaking truth behind it.

    ...side note? oh FUCK no they dont get to use the word "rainbow" without our permission.

    Blahahaha! It seems to imply that they're all going to be forced into same-sex marriages. Let's book them in now!

    I saw this commercial last night. CNN did a story asking if gay marriage was gaining momentum. On thing that I found interesting this group was planning to release this commercial at the end of the month but after the rulings in Iowa and Vermont they decided to move it forward. They know the momentum is on our side!

    I don't see what they're going to accomplish with this ad. Sure, it'll get the homophobic ulta-right social conservatives all excited to 'protect' heterosexual marriage, but such ridiculous advertising only turns off the people in the middle that don't care strongly about the issue.

    And 'Rainbow Coalition'? Seriously? I hope Jesse Jackson sues them for copyright infringement.

    The problem was they didn't explain how it's going to impact them. All of them. If they had just argued properly,with evidence on the first 20 seconds of that commercial, I would have at least watched on to see what they are "fighting" against.

    Ignorant people. Bleh

    This is so ridiculously over-dramatised that I couldn't help but laugh at them. It reminded me of Bold and the Beautiful or another one of those poorly acted shows.

    "I'm a Massachusetts parent helplessly watching public schools teaching my son that gay marriage is OK"

    Oh Nos! They're going to be infected by "the gay plague".

    Would you rather them teach him that being gay is wrong, so if he's gay he'll feel like an outcast and kill himself? That isn't a stretch of the imagination.

    Replace gay/ same sex with black or women and the whole thing seems ridiculous, yet it wouldn't years ago. GET OVER YOURSELVES.

    "Women aren't content with being able to vote, they want to be able to own property"

    "I'm helpless watching public schools teaching my son that it's OK for Blacks to use the same restroom and sit in the front of the bus"

    This is what i wanted to post but didnt cause it would record my IP adress

    You know the church once believed that blacks shouldnt have rights and be able to marry but that is in no way right or true. Churches always teach that god loves all people and how that no one should be discriminated against but you guys never mean it. Oh and nature being i would like to say that the only reason that the suicide rate is higher is because people like you tell gay teenagers that their family would be happier if they killed themselves.

    These people make me so mad i just dont understand how us being able to get married will infring on their lifestyles why cant they just leave us alone

    Aww, those poor people....

    How much does this cost? Ten cents a day? And I can change their lives?





    Seriously, this is stupid. They've turned it into a sob fest when it really shouldn't be. The government doesn't do anything to churches who refuse to marry same sex couples.

    "I am afraid"

    Okay, seriously; what the hell?

    "My freedom.... will be taken away... *sob*"

    And our freedoms?

    I have nothing more to really say on this. It's over dramatised and just makes everyone on that ad sound like douchebags.

    Marriage has always been a joke in my eyes, since its religion based.

    Let them keep their marriage, lets just change the law to something else to recognise people as couples, thus making it fair to everyone, and religious people can keep their crappy marriage.

    Then if those religious people want benfits, and everything else that comes with it, their religious standpoint has nothing to do with it!

    Win for everyone!
