"99% of the people we polled were in the Castro District of San Francisco, and the remaining 1% were in Montrose in Houston. Nationwide poll. Nationwide poll."
Yeah it is so simple to abuse basic methodology and terminology to get a result that you plan for.
Frankly I don't trust a single poll nowadays.
SSM couldn't even pass in California but now 71% (all-time high) support it? In today's political climate?
BTW the tweet contains a fag flag which I edited it out, so NSFW

And now for some positive news from Gallup Polling:

Honestly, I wouldn't even trust that poll.
The vast majority of Christians are social conservatives and Christians are still a big part of America.
I cannot believe that the fucking Imp is the only one in this thread who is being even somewhat realistic about the American public's perceptions of gay marriage.
Times have changed since 2004.
A majority of Americans still support gay marriage but they are against woke gender ideology pushed in schools and the rainbow pride garbage.
Don't get these two different things twisted. Most people don't want the LGBT religion forced on them but they are not going to repeal same sex marriage.
I would estimate the numbers to be about 55 percent of the country is for allowing same sex couples to be married, while 35 percent is absolutely against it and 10 percent is like I don't really care about the issue.
America is sadly becoming more and more atheist and morally nihilistic.
The nation is certainly not as Christian as you think when you have babykilling abortion referendums passing in solid red states like Kentucky.
As someone who lives in a red leaning suburb in Texas, the reality is that even plenty of Republicans here actually support same sex marriage.
Scott Presler is our biggest voter registration guy in the GOP and he is gay.
Richard Grenell is gay and he is a major Trump surrogate.
The GOP has more gays in it than you think.
We are not living in the pre-Trump era GOP where opposition to same sex in the party was universal.
Trump was openly for same sex marriage.
Wanting to outlaw same sex marriage won't happen even in red states.
You're right about America, but when are gays going to start being interested in same-sex marriage? I don't know what's less common, a gay Republican or a gay person that actually wants to get married.
As an addendum to what you mentioned, and for those that don't know, monogamy is practically non-existent among gays. The only reason gays wanted to get married is to desecrate it's meaning.
As per slate: https://www.thestranger.com/blogs/2010/01/29/3321374/half-of-all-gay-couples-non-monogamous
And for anyone thinking, "Well that was in 2010, times have changed". No, they have not changed.
A more recent study from a Left-wing organization, Health Equality and Rights Organisation, still found the same results, as of 2018: https://archive.is/wip/UECi4
Even gay men don't want monogamy, they just want to know when they're being cheated on: https://dailytrojan.com/2018/10/26/writing-rainbow-were-infidelity-and-gay-men-always-meant-to-be/
Most people end up being single partner, at least in the emotional and cooperative senses. That was always the case, so gay marriage doesn't seem uncommon at all to me.
This. The super based red state myth is just a lie. I live in a red state. Plenty of LGBT support, single mothers, fat people, normies, NPCs and general unhealthiness.
You are Californian
How quickly did society go from disapproving of gay marriage in polls to approving?
If we give polling the benefit of the doubt and assume that wasn't bullshit, then do you think it's possible to reverse the tide in a similar timeframe?
Is this supposed to impress me or something? 'cause listing all this shit out is accomplishing is just making me agree with that other guy who said that you're making a great case for ensuring the Republicans only ever lose from now on, at least until the socially liberal element have been expelled or forced back in line.
You make an excellent case for making sure the Republicans never win another election.
Remember the "Log Cabin Republicans"? What ever happened to them? A quick search shows they're still a faction but they've been out of the media for a long time.
I think I'll look up their position on the tranny problem.
It isn’t now and it never has been. The Supreme Court forced it on the country after it was voted down nearly nation wide.
Because all these pollsters live in urban blue bubbles with no connection to the rest of the non urban country
I'm not surprised, I support gay marriage myself. I have always rejected, and continue to reject, public indecency and grooming.
They like to lob "Gay Marriage" in with everything the alphabet mafia demands, when in fact it is one of the most basic and benign things they want. The fact that support is only at 71% is indicative of the pushback imo.
Letting these degenerate getting a foot in the door is beginning the public indecency and grooming. I'm not gonna fall for the muh human rights when the human "rights" always lead to pedophilia.
I'm perfectly capable of drawing a line and sticking to it. Pedos and groomers got the rope, get the rope, and are destined for the rope. You don't have to be a prude to hold this position.
I really don't care if two consenting adults want to commit to spending the rest of their lives with each other. However, before I support the government being involved, I want to know why they are involved with marriage in the first place.
If the motivation is to incentivize having a family, then no, same-sex marriage should not be recognized, at least not with the tax benefits. For next-of-kin stuff? I'm fine with that.
I also lean towards agreeing with the argument that they shouldn't call it marriage. Churches also shouldn't be forced to hold ceremonies that go against their religious beliefs.
Yeah, gay sex is fucking disgusting, but so is pineapple on pizza. I don't care if you do it, just don't do it in front of me.
Famous last words right before you get pedophile rights movements
I'm not arguing for social acceptance, just governmental neutrality. Why would you trust the government to appropriately decide who you're allowed to marry?
Government should only involve itself to protect people/property and mediate aggrievances. They should not be the arbiters of social policy. You are arguing to give the government power in interpersonal relationships. I just cannot agree with that.
We didn't have public display for support of pedophiles prior to this.
It was a slippery slope to allow gay marriage and nobody voted for it (in fact, it was voted AGAINST even in states like California). Society hasn't been the same since then.
We used to have that government, but that was a long time ago.
We lost it because we were sold lies about culture not having an impact on on our day-to-day lives. It turns out, the type of people who were molded by that counter-culture don't care about limiting government and despise everything about America.
And our Constitution wasn't designed for half of the people who currently occupy America
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." - John Adams
That's fine, that's what forums are about.
I was looking for a debate, so no worries, just stating my views in hopes that someone would challenge them.
I'd argue that we did. NAMBLA has been around since the 70's. Explicit support for overt pedophilia is still not accepted by anyone but pedophiles and ignorant, brainwashed cultists. I agree that they have been emboldened by the LGBTQ+ pride bullshit, but the positive to it is that they are now out in the open.
Support for pedophilia is not actually growing, but what is growing is the cult-like mentality to blindly support anything that the right is opposed to. Gay marriage does not contribute to the tribalism, which is the true main cause of the emboldening of the pedophiles, but the debate over it does.
I don't like slippery slope arguments. The line can be drawn wherever we choose to draw it. Gay civil unions are fine, raping children is not, and it is that simple. The line should be drawn where it makes the most sense, not some arbitrary number of steps back from where it should be to avoid the "slippery slope".
I cannot believe it but you are the only one in this thread who also understands the American public's stance on the legality of same sex marriage.
Majority of Americans hate gender ideology wokeness and forced pride garbage but they are not for repealing same sex marriage.
Lol ok, just come out and say what you mean. "All the people here are morons who don't even know what they believe! You're only mad at the trannies and pride because it's the 'in thing' to hate. Once the DeSimptis campaign is bored of the astroturfing you'll all forget about it and move on to the next distraction our masters tell us."
Yeah, I am sure otherwise we would be totally okay with dudes in dresses.
Sez you.
No, I was very obviously hyperbolically interpreting what TheImpossible1 believes, which he has confirmed was correct. I've added quotation marks to the comment to make it more clear. Although it was already clear. Nobody uses the term DeSimptis except him.
