		<description><![CDATA[Yes. The law discriminates FOR A REASON!

There has been no reason given to continue this discrimination against same sex couples. Not one that holds up. Not once.

That&#039;s why the ruling was correct.

Unless you&#039;d like to step up and offer a reason?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Reuben.  None of us truly have equal rights.  The law discriminates for a myriad of reasons for example:

Age discrimination - like not giving a 10 year old a drivers licence.  

National Origin - Bermuda&#039;s immigration &amp; employment practices discriminate based on national origin.  Many countries discriminate in their immigration policy, requiring Visas for some and not others.   

This is why J. Simmons ruling was wrong.  Every thing the government does can not be a service.  Some things are solely the function of the government and the government does discriminate-all the time based on what will support the desired outcome and will of the people.]]></description>

Nothing in here is true. 

Respect and kindness? While people spewed demonstrable lies in an attempt to justify discrimination against our fellow Bermudians? That&#039;s neither respectful nor kind. 
Respect? When people came over and argued that &quot;it is against God&#039;s will&quot; and then, when explained that not everyone follows their religion, said &quot;This isn&#039;t a religious argument&quot;? That level of bizarre dishonesty is not respectful. 
How about the guy with the &quot;Batty boy&quot; sign? Was he respectful?
