BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS VOTE

This is such a dark and sad day in North Carolina. My thoughts today have been about the Senate and House votes on what is referred to as the Anti-LGBT Amendment. Both the Senate and the House have voted to allow this amendment to go to the voters. The only catch is that the date they {The Republican's of course} have chosen is on their primary voting date in May 2012. There is SO much to consider here. My thoughts and questions to ponder about all this are as follows:

FIRST: What gives a majority group of people the right to vote on a minority group of people's basic human rights?

SECOND: The constitution is here to protect people is it NOT? So why is there going to be a vote to allow discrimination against a minority group of people?


THIRD: There is already a LAW banning same-sex marriage in the state of North Carolina. So why put this on the ballot or in our NC constitution at all?


FOURTH: Wasn't this such a waste of tax payer money to have this "special session?"


FIFTH: At ONE time weren't the conservatives all about NOT intruding on other peoples lives? Perhaps that was the old conservative way. 


SIXTH: How are the young homosexual children going to feel about seeing all the negative ads that the so called christian's are going to have on TV?

There could come a time when there could be a constitutional amendment to ban the consumption of shrimp and shell fish in this state since the Bible clearly states eating them is WRONG according to Leviticus 11:9-12 and Deuteronomy 14:9-10. Not that I am a Bible thumper  because I am not. However I do have homosexual friends that are. Imagine that!
 
I could just go on and on about this subject but why should I? How can anyone truly believe that this is Gods Will?
