If these votes were limited to people younger than 35, Gay Marriage would be passing.
As the boomers die and the children of the young people who are beginning to accept gay marriage become voting age themselves, these referendums are toast.
I don’t see that young people are accepting of homosexuals.
I would say the most strident anti-homosexuals are actually young people.
All you have to do is listen to them. They often call something that sucks “GAY”.
Age (and marriage itself) has a way of changing people's opinions, and parents of minors today will be more attentive to instilling a proper view of marriage than parents of current twentysomethings were.
My pessimism encourages more effort, and more intelligent effort. The legal revolution SSM will create (lawsuits, closed Christian foster agencies, re-education in schools, etc...) is incentive enough to continue the fight. 31-0 is the record now. Defeatism is premature.
