NY Legislature legalizes gay marriage
AP ^ | June 24, 2011 | MICHAEL GORMLEY

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Gay marriage will become legal in New York state after the Republican-led state Senate voted to approve it. Advocates are calling it a historic step as New York stands to become the sixth but by far the largest state to legalize same-sex marriage.

Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo lobbied hard for the bill and has promised to sign it.

The Senate vote is viewed as a major gain in an effort to allow gay marriage nationally.

We expected this from cuomo and the other democrats but not from the republicans. That’s what makes it so shameful.

Perhaps.

Perhaps not.

“...does this mean gay New Yorkers are going to start voting Republican?”

of course not! Nobody respects a traitor. Look at what happened to Arlen Specter.

I know NY is a liberal state, but any chance of voting any of these RINO’s out and getting true conservatives?

I'd ask you to share it with us, but I think we are dancing on thin ice. (It's that darned Global warming).

I’m not opposed to the free exchange of ideas, nor am I opposed to states flexing their 10th Amendment muscles either. Alabama passed a bill banning gay marriage, and NY allowed it, but Alabama passed their bill first. It will be an interesting though tight-rope battle in courts should someone decide to sue.

I’d rather not feed the trolls. By mentioning them and their garbage, you are giving them satisfaction. I think we just report abuse on them, and ignore. Let the mods handle it.

this is what comes of leaving it to the states. A Federal marriage amendment must be a priority for the next President.

Would love to see it.

Would likely be about item# 50-75 on the priority list.

and that IF he/she was truly conservative.

After Armageddon. No problem. Though probably wouldn’t be needed.

All such creatures will be wiped off the planet.

Lots of posts removed.

I caught a glimpse of one post in passing. It was directed to me. The poster said something about all of us traditional marriage supporters taking up arms. I guess he wanted us all to start killing our political enemies.

When I checked back later, there were about 10 posts that were deleted. I suspect the poster was deleted as well.

I did, what's your point?

FR makes no such threats, violence against anyone is not only prohibited, but true FReepers detest it!

I thought he was way out of line. Guess I should have hit the abuse button right away. I figured someone would get to him sooner or later. Thankfully.

Besides, God has scheduled the cleansing of the earth of every kind of evil . . .

and Scripture says that the heart of all of us is deceitfully wicked, who can know it.

Particularly without the cleansing of the Blood of Jesus.

Apparently whoever posted it was one of the Liberal Trolls trying to make Free Republic look bad. He posted all that crap and then posted a question on Yahoo answers asking if Free Republic should be banned for advocating the nonsense he posted.

These liberals have no shame.

I believe the deleted posts were from the trolls; who after posting hateful, anti-gay comments as a supposed FReeper, (and getting them deleted), posed the question on Yahoo; they do indeed have no shame!

It's the way thugs and communists do business!
