Gay rights in New york, law passed

New York finally passed the law to let Same sex get married. The law was passed July 24th 2011. New york rejected same sex marriage on December 2nd 2009 with a vote on 38-24. Legalizing same sex marriage will gain over $210 million in the three years. Some people are scared that legalizing same sex will cause more people to get AIDS. New York is the sixth and largest state to legalize gay marriage.

I think that it is very great that they finally legalized. Gay people should have the rights to marry who they want. I do believe that people should be able to marry who they want and that they are born that way. If they like the same sex, that just what they like. Gay couples are going to exist either they get married or not, it doesn't hurt you so why should it matter? What would be your first argument anyway? Are you that evil to ban a human to be happy and marry another person? Just because you have the power to ban something doesn't mean you should. There's no bad things that will happen against gay marriage.

“I apologize for those who feel offended,” Mr. Grisanti said, adding, “I cannot deny a person, a human being, a taxpayer, a worker, the people of my district and across this state, the State of New York, and those people who make this the great state that it is the same rights that I have with my wife.” 


I think what Mr. Grisanti said was beautiful. He is telling the truth and i am glad that a man doesn't feel ashamed of saying that and agreeing that it is okay for gay people to get married. For all the people who voted for gay rights in New york to be approved and the law to be passed should be proud that they made such a big difference in someone's live.
