More than a few months ago, in my state, a bill was passed making gay marriage legal. Now that voting day is coming around there is a question/ballot to over turn this law. There are these commercials for both sides of the subject and it's unclear how the whole thing is going to turn out.
What I want for this contest is your personal opinion on the matter. You can show this in several ways; a good old-fashioned rant, a kind of persuasive essay, or a mini-script for your own commercial supporting beliefs.
A Few Rules:
1)Please try and use good grammar(you can't get your point across if I struggle to understand you)
2)No swearing please
3)No word limit, go short or go crazy
***
Now the sake of fairness I will not reveal my own personal opinion on the subject, and I will not let it bias me when judging the entries. I'm looking for clear reasons why you think like you do. The ones who can convey their thoughts in the best possible manner -- no matter what they are -- are the ones who will get trophies.

Marridge is a strong bond. It makes them happy to be together, but for gay people, if they're gay and want to have that bond, they can't because of the law.
