		<description><![CDATA[It does have an impact when my children constantly get confused and ask why two men are having sex when its not taught in school as a normal behavior.  If its not normal why do it and dont say because animals do it, as i have heard that argument.  Animals eat each other and do a whole bunch of other things..so we should follow animals now..so should schools start teaching health class regarding gay relationships and how two men have sex amd encourage little children to be with the same sex...its sick!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well if they are going to cite the Euro Commission they need to be transparent and tell the whole story 

 &quot;The ECHR reiterated that under article 1 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (the Convention) there is no right to marry for same-sex couples. (Id. ¶ 191). However, the ECHR held that the Convention imposes positive obligations on Member States of the Council of Europe to offer legal alternatives to such couples, either in the form of civil unions or registered partnerships&quot;  taken from a ruling in 2015 in Italy.  

I would argue &quot; the educational work&quot; of preserve marriage is one sided.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can we get another petition or appeal to leave the decision right where it is, right where it belongs and in the right!!! Anyone who is gay should not be voting for the PLP who are hell bent on removing the rights of others. Anyone voting for Wayne Furbert better not be gay or have friends, family members or acquaintances who are gay. Shame on all of you!]]></description>
