[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I often wonder about how those who are against gay marriage are going to feel in 10, 15, 20+ years. Views on gay marriage have been rapidly changing toward acceptance, and even one of the Republican members of the NC legislature (sorry, don't remember his name) admitted that this new amendment will be repealed in the next 10 or 20 years as views change and tolerance increases. It's funny because we see a lot of posts on DCUM about how posters are embarrassed by their racist grandparents or parents. What's funny is that [b]YOUR [/b]kids are the ones who will be complaining about that in 10 years. I imagine that there will be a lot of future adults who will be both embarrassed and disgusted by their parents' views against marriage equality. Yes, [b]YOU [/b]will be that embarrassing (grand)parent that the kids will whisper about, and will not want to spend time with.[/quote]

I doubt it.  Homosexuality ebbs and flows throughout history. Sometimes it is tolerated, sometimes it is trendy, but then there is the inevitable backlash.  Comparing it to civil rights is silly.  Gays are not going to separate schools and drinking out of separate water fountains.  All of the rights they are looking for can be solved via contact rights.[/quote]

Enjoy being looked upon as a relic by your own children when they grow up, and a bigot by everyone else.[/quote]
