Abortion is already allowed in some states, but I believe it shouldn't be allowed anywhere!

I believe that this is a huge issue that needs to be resolved. Too long has our society passed judgment on others differing from them, how is this any different? This seems insane to me that other people are denied right by the government because of their preference to men or women. Judgment on members of the GLBT community are purely based on others' personal beliefs, directly linked to religion. Thomas Jefferson included in the First Amendment that there should be a separation of church and state. What does it look like our society is doing? NOT separating church and state, how is it fair for certain people to suffer because of another's personal beliefs.

Gay,lesbian,bisexual,and transgender couples all deserve the same rights as those couples of opposites sex. LGBT couples should be allowed to marry and recieve the equal rights that opposite sex couples are given. The Constitution states that "All men are created equal", therefore shouldn't LGBT couples recieve equal rights in any situation but in marriage more so.

For a hundred years, the Federal Reserve bank has plundered the United States' treasury, devaluing the dollar and using corporte connections to keep American's divided on topics of moral vs. legal. America was started as a logical free country but eventually Televised media and divided americans "Left and Right" to keep us fighting each other for candidates who, ultimatly, work for the meg- bankers. combined with using news to stir up emotional topics to cloud people's minds. Our loyalty shouldn't be democratic or Republican, it should be to the Bill of Rights and as much freedom as possible despite the morality of the situation.

THIS IS NOT AN AMNESTY!! This is a way to get undocumented people in the USA on the path to citizenship. Qualifications would be that the person has been here for a certain amount of time, the person has to have good moral (the person would have to go through various background checks), the person would have to learn English, and many more qualifications that can be checked on reformimmigrationforamerica.org
This also includes the DREAM act which would let undocumented students go to college and since college will be open to many more people it would also decrease the high school drop out rate.

Homosexuality is the last form of prejudice that has not been correctly addressed in our country. Racial segregation has been long gone from daily life. Religious persecution still exists but is denounced by law. Why do homosexuals carry the burden of being harassed and bullied by the regular citizens of society? Why are they also condemned by religious officials? We must put aside all forms of opinion and consider the truth. Homosexuals are human beings just like the rest of society. They have the capacity to be upstanding citizens and love unconditionally like anyone else on this earth. Why then are they denied their rights to marry and to be the same “men created equal”, “under God”?

Although not mainstream, diversity is something that is an issue in almost all aspects of world, school and everyday life. We live in a world with a variety of different people who come from many different backgrounds; therefore, it is vital that we not only tolerate but respect one another.

Gay Rights is becoming a focal topic in media today. If we are not able to support those in our country and resolve conflict how can we be leaders to others?
