Gay+marriage

Hello!

The next exersise is to write about gay's and lesbians.  I don’t understand that in America you may not marry someone from the same-sex. Because I think everyone is the same. Harvey Milk was the first gay who was in the city government. It is a good point to see that America is a country with lots of cultures, and you have to accept that. But it’s shocking to read that he’s killed, and that the same night a lot of gay’s were hitted by the police. Everybody is the same! And lesbians and gay’s are very nice persons, I know a gay, he's very nice. So I don't understand that a gay-marriage was forbidden! When you believe in the church, and it's forbidden that you'll marry someone with the same-sex, then I understand that. But if you want to make America a free country then you have to accept the gay marriage and so everyone. Greets Dorien.
