““-Procreation? Marriage has never required children, and plenty of heterosexual couples can’t or don’t have kids.””

Procreation is, in principle, impossible with a gay couple, and only by chance does not happen in those heterosexual couples. A human is, in principle someone with two legs. A human may be born without them, by chance, but he is still human. An ape, however, is not a human. It is, in principle, not a human, and does not have rights as such.

Procreation is also, however, not the goal of marriage. Furthermore, it's not your problem what other people do. All campaigning against gay marriage achieves is that now Senators gotta find their 89 gay hookups in a Tenessee airport bathroom instead of being nofmal about it

The goal of marriage is to create a stable societal family unit, and that purpose does not exist when the married couples does not attempt to have children.

 @BDJNHBS from New Jersey  disagreed…1mo1MO

Mariage is not dependent on children, your arguments reuse the same defective points that already make no sense, you can have a happy marriage without children, many people do, and if your only getting married for children that doesn’t sound like a good idea

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
