I was raised as a Christian and believe that marriage is God's sacred union between a man and woman. I support and respect the choices of people involved in same-sex relationships and partnerships and believe they should be given the same legal rights as any other couple.
But it is the will of the majority to vote against the marriage of same-sex couples. I am outraged that Gov. Arnold Schwartzenegger signed a bill to allow out-of-state same sex marriages to be recognized in California.
By doing so, he has undermined his fellow Californians and the very core of the American way of democracy, which many Americans gave their lives for. He circumvented the will of the majority! What a waste of time and taxpayers' money. Why vote?
The practice of Gov. Schwarzenegger's dictatorship and his "do as I say" mentality should not be repeated.
