Gay Marriage Vote in NJ Senate on Thursday

[Mechaman]

How about they let the people of NJ vote on this?

Yeah, civil rights should always go to referenda. That's how we made such great progress with african american rights!

     I find that, throughout history, attempts to expand civil rights have done poorly whenever they've gone to the ballot box.

Yeah mob rule is usually not good when determining civil liberties, at least during this era of great change in the values and morals of society.
