I had a lot of respect for England a year ago. It's all gone now because of their gay marriage thing. Blair was so pleased that the injustice of gay married people not being allowed to adopt kids is now over. England makes me sick anymore.
I believe some of your States allows full gay marriage not just civil unions are you sick of those too.
I do not agree with gay marriage or civil unions but your comment is ridulous.
I believe I can say that I understand how you feel and I do share your disgust with the recent social changes that have been made in Great Britain. The U.K. has many troubles right now, with most of them being caused by Socialism and the evil forces of the Left.
I would wish, however, to sincerely urge the reconsideration of any desire to wholly forsake Great Britain now, during her time of great need. It is my heartfelt belief that this 'gay marriage' business and associated insanity is not a true reflection of the soul of the British people. I believe that this is, in fact, an opportunistic violence that has been visited upon them as a result of Leftist deviousness and corruption as manifested through the voting and political processes. I will be quick to admit that I am no expert on the subtleties of British politics; there are many Britons who have contributed to this thread and elsewhere on Free Republic who are far more qualified than I to speak at length or in detail on this. Let me just say that I believe that the British people are better than this, and that the only reason why these awful things have been allowed to happen is because their Conservatives are in political disarray and so are unable to mount an effective rebuke to this. I believe also that sometimes things have to get pretty bad for complacency to be replaced by action, and I have hope and faith that the true and honorable majority in Great Britain will soon rise up en masse to bring light back into this dark era that they have entered.
Over the past two hundred years, Great Britain has proven itself a great and true friend, through good times and bad, to the United States. They have been an unshakable, stalwart ally in many world conflicts as well as the current war on terror. Our culture and our very existence is under attack by Islamofascism, and we share this culture with our British friends. We must continue to stand together and consider the long-term view. "Gay marriage' and adoption laws can be revoked and changed in future administrations, but a nuke that's set off in London could do far more damage than anything Hitler was able to do. I would wish to urge a long-term view, and instead of casting aside our great and true friends when they are at a point of internal social crisis to instead reach out and offer support and friendship, and perhaps an occasional bit of help for positive change.
