On June 26, 2015 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the denial of marriage licenses violated the Due Process and the Equal Protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. The ruling made same sex marriage legal in all 50 U.S. States.

No. I want the government out of marriage, and same-sex marriage is itself a government invention. Stop treating homosexual orientation as an important defining characteristic of a person one way or the other.
@B6LZQQ34wks4W
No. I want the government out of marriage altogether, and heterosexual marriage is a basic part of human nature which predates the government and does not need the government, while homosexual marriage is an artificial government invention.
@9HBD4MF2yrs2Y
Yes and religious marriages should be separate from legal marriage for everyone. No clergy of any kind should be permitted to enact a legal marriage and no American should be required to have a religious marriage. There is room at every wedding for a justice of the peace to do the civil part while a clergy does the religious part. Clergy will not be required to perform a religious marriage contrary to their beliefs.
@9G94VHPWomen’s Equality2yrs2Y
Yes, 100% it literally does not hurt or affect you in anyway, love is love that shouldn't be put out just because they are the same gender.
@9HLB36Y2yrs2Y
Yes, what two consenting adults choose to do with their lives shouldn't be the governments business.
@98XFRYS3yrs3Y
The government should have no say in the matter, it is a personal decision.
@96PVXWZ3yrs3Y
you do you but dont get others involved
@96NNP6K3yrs3Y
I choose neither. Both options I don't agree with so no for both
@96JXZMH3yrs3Y
I think that everyone has the right to marry who ever they wanted weather its any gender.
@96F4XYTIndependent3yrs3Y
yes but allow churches to have their own beliefs and practices. government should not effect this at all
@95GRPG63yrs3Y
Yes, I also support polyamorous marriages and LGBTQ+ marriages.
@95DSJZQLibertarian3yrs3Y
Remove tax benefits for marriage. all individuals taxed as individuals. Marriage should be a personal union and should only be used for societal items such as shared healthcare, passing of assets upon death, etc.
@mjmclaugh96drdirka3yrs3Y
Yes, but federal government should not be involved. Churches should be allowed the right to refuse ceremonies.
@939D5LN3yrs3Y
Let people make their own decisions on the topic.
@phillycheese3yrs3Y
Yes. LGBTQ+ People exist. And everyone should be allowed to get married if they so choose.
@8SB73WB4yrs4Y
Take the government out of marriage and make it informal.
@8M83Y265yrs5Y
The government has no right to make decisions based on religious reasons. Therefore constitutionally there is no ground for them to refuse homosexual couples.
@8KVT46V5yrs5Y
Yes, it's a frickin sex for god damn sex for christ's sake, why should you care what's in their pants in your not their s/o and also why do you care so much about other's realtionships mind your own business, it's not that hard.
@99VVVZZ3yrs3Y
If you are happy with the person you are marrying then it should not matter, I am not against it or with it, you should be able to do what you want. I do not care.
@99B3HHY3yrs3Y
It doesn't matter what your gender is.
@98Y3H883yrs3Y
yes but it means little to nothing to me as it is ones indivdual choice and should not be pressed upon
@98XDBC63yrs3Y
I don't really have a opinion on this topic
@98XCZX63yrs3Y
this should not be allowed in anyway
@98897BF3yrs3Y
It’s honestly none of my business what two consenting adults choose to do behind closed doors and if they want to get married or not.
@97YK4TV3yrs3Y
It doesn't really have a toll on me therefore I don't think there's a problem with same sex marriage.
@97R9Z4M3yrs3Y
I don't really care, it is the choice of the individual on who they like so they can marry who they want no matter what gender.
@9776ZP3Independent3yrs3Y
very bad get punished, but sometimes in OHIO
@975BS2BRepublican3yrs3Y
The choice of the people
@8GMZ6YC5yrs5Y
The government shouldn't have a say.
