In Angela DeRiggi's editorial discussing same-sex marriage she argues that there should be a national law that would legalize marriage for anyone, regardless of sexual orientation. She states very solid reasons in a well put together and considerate way.
The fact that those who would like to marry with the same sex are restricted to specific areas of our country where it is allowed is ridiculous. I liked her stance on how religion has impacted this issue. Her belief that God doesn't discriminate is very interesting and brings a different, yet effective impact to her argument. Arguing for the national government to put in a national law that would legalize same-sex marriage is basically arguing that this issue shouldn't even be an argument in the first place and that it should be a clear cut decision to be enforced in all 50 states. I also agree that there is no set definition of happiness. We are all different and to say "this is how you become happy" or "this is what happy is" is selfish and wrong. She recognizes that and states it well.
Overall, it's hard for anyone to argue against what she's saying, because it's all fair and true and she is well informed and intelligent in her execution of the commentary. I believe it is tough for someone who is so close-minded to stand a chance against one who is open-minded and communicates well. The facts are there, the reasons are there and the argument is on point.
