Topic: What is your opinion on the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s decision that gay marriage is a constitutional right?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think its okay. I\u2019m really open to diversity. I like that everyone\u2019s given the right, not just the regular lady and man. If it\u2019s girl and girl, boy and boy, whatever, if they wish to do it then why not. If that\u2019s what their heart tells them, I think, you know we should agree with it and not go against it.
\nBecky Mattao<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s all about love. As long as they\u2019re good citizens, nothing wrong about that gay marriage. I support it all the way.
\nJeff Mendoza<\/strong><\/p>\n

I do identify as a lesbian, so when I woke up [with the news] I was really happy. I\u2019m really proud. I think it\u2019s really an important step in equality but I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a final step. I think there are a lot of things that we can do before it\u2019s actually equal in the U.S.
\nHeidi Lochen<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t like it. But legally we have no choice now. I\u2019m an old fashioned guy. I believe in man and woman joining for matrimony. Not man and man or girl and girl.
\nJM Guerrero<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally. I\u2019m glad the decision was made. It was the right decision and it should\u2019ve been made a long time ago. It never should\u2019ve been an issue. The separation of church and state deems marriage by the state as a legal agreement between two people and shouldn\u2019t matter what your sex is.
\nMike Ronesia<\/p>\n

I do support gay marriage because I believe, we\u2019re all the same and love has no gender.
\nRuss Hocog<\/strong><\/p>\n

They\u2019re making the world diverse, it\u2019s great. Everyone is equal. People that like the same people are, I guess, the same as the heterosexual people. It shouldn\u2019t be unbalanced, it should be equal.
\nRobert Suzuki, Jr.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I agree totally, it was a long time coming. It\u2019s a good thing.
\nTammy James<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m happy not because I\u2019m gay but because we\u2019re getting equality. We don\u2019t want to be special but we want to be equal with everybody. We\u2019re also human beings, right? We\u2019re happy that somehow, they\u2019ve recognizing it now.
\nMikka Valencia<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m against it. That\u2019s not God\u2019s will. God\u2019s will is for a man and a woman to be together that they may multiply. I\u2019m against the gay marriage; it\u2019s not the people that I\u2019m against. It\u2019s their choices.
\nAnamaria Tuigamala<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think the government really shouldn\u2019t have a say on who marries who or why. So I support it.
\nSarah Fryling<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think that it\u2019s about time that they finally let people them be with who they want to be with. Gay marriage is all about equality. That\u2019s just what it is. I\u2019m proud to say that love wins all the time, you can\u2019t stop that, it always prevails.
