Making a difference: Ronnie Fitzgerald at the Delaware State Fair yesterday collecting signatures for Marriage Equality, along with Wendy Jones and other Libertarian candidates. The Democrats wouldn't do it; the Republicans wouldn't do it; so that left it to the Libertarians.
Ronnie told everyone, "I'm here because all Americans need to have the same rights."
He had his most memorable moment early in the afternoon, when a gentleman he approached to sign the petition threw up his hands and screamed, "Don't touch me, Satan!"
We're thinking that "Satan endorses Ronnie Fitzgerald" might work as a campaign slogan! ;)
If you want a State Representative who will stick to his principles no matter what, you want to elect Ronnie Fitzgerald.--Steve Newton
I believe that marriage is a contract between two consenting adults and the government should not be involved at all. Religious and personal beliefs must succumb to the Guarantees given to all in the U.S. Constitution. All men are created equal and should have equal rights regardless of sex, age, race, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious or political opinions. The Federal and State governments should not promote discrimination and serve all citizens equally and fairly.
ReplyDeleteSupport for marriage equality has been rising for a few years now. How long until Americans decide that everyone has the fundamental right to enter into mutual contracts without restraint from the federal government on the basis of arbitrary moral standards?
ReplyDeleteNo, no one has the fundamental right to marry, but they do have the fundamental right to equality under the law according to the equal protections clause - that means all laws must apply equally to all citizens. That means you can't issue marriage licenses to some citizens, but not others. And dogs can't consent to contracts - legal adults can.
