ang daming tao sa ibat-ibang bansa ang ayaw sa america at sa mga americano. pero bakit ang dami pa ring gusto pumunta sa america?� hindi lang para bumisita kundi para mag migrate.

Nakaka-depress. Nag-dedaydream pa naman ako na makapunta sa States sometime in future hoping na, by then, hindi lang sa California pwede ang same sex marriage at gay parents’ adoption… Haaay. Ipagdasal nalang natin sila.

You’re giving too much credit to a country who steals ideas from other countries to make progress. If it weren’t for third-world countries like such as ourselves, then they wouldn’t be up there in the first place!

Stop patronizing that stupid country. Even if Obama is the new president, that country has no hope of getting back to its former glory. They’re down n shambles for the remaining days of their pathetic lives!

We may JUST be a Third-world country BUT unlike the US, we teach our kids to be respectful of their elders so they don�t go to school with guns on a blood lust. We may not be as �forward-thinking� regarding LGBT issues, at least we don�t see much hate crimes here vs the US.

My sentiment exactly for quite some time now. hayy..

gay people should have the same right to be miserable in their marriages just as straight couples are.

it is sad, yes, but we have to remember that of all of the developed countries, america is still the most religious. it’s founders were conservative christians. the silver lining to all these is the fact that in the case of california, 48% of the voters were progressive enough to vote against the proposition. what the gay americans have going for them is thier tenacity to fight in all fronts, including a possible challenge by taking it to the supreme court. twenty years ago no african american person could even imagine having an african american president. there is hope, but people have to ask for it and fight for it.

americans opted for an african-american president who is pro-abortion… and yet they can’t allow gay people to live life the way they wanted it… is that what you call real democracy? is that what you call integration? i don’ think so…

I think it’s already official, the ban for same sex marriage won on the 3 states including CAlifornia where most recently Ellen degeneres got married (52%). This will override the state supreme court ruling just this May… sad day for those who are planning to get married. Arizona at� 56% while Florida overwhelmingly won by 62%.

In arkansas they also prohibit unmarried sexual partners (hetero or homo) from adopting a child or serve as foster parents

What i dont know is What will happen to those who got married before this ammendment? ma revoke ba ang mga marriage license nila?
