6. On who can get
married http://www.flickr.com/photos/51799074@N00/3033950986/

11. Laws can be put up, but
that won't change who
these people are.

12. Traditional marriage would not be affected
if Same-Sex Marriage was allowed. It will

13. But still people
choose to oppose it.

14. Even if Same-Sex Marriage
can be done in Canada, it
would not be recognized in
certain parts in the U.S.

15. My own
sister threw
her dreams

away
because it
would not
be valid in
our state.

16. Younger generations
can be heavily
influenced by all this.

17. Kids who have been swayed to
oppose the idea of same-sex
marriage have often become
bullies.

But there are those who wear purple on Spirit Day to support
lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth that are or have
been bullied (http://www.glaad.org/spiritday).

19. We should try to listen to each others sides
instead of fighting or arguing whether
which side is right or wrong

20. Though we can’t tell people how to live their lives,
we can figure out what our silver lining can be and move on.
