Elected Officials are Tyrants

Elected Officials are Tyrants
Indicating again that the public discourse is polluted beyond recognition, Rep. Wolf and Rep. Rushing call same sex marriage a civil right. Not only is it not a constitutional or civil right it is not a right at all. It is a privilege.
MA Gov. Deval Patrick said he brings change. The most obvious change is that the public discourse has degraded further. Supporters of same sex marriage call people who disagree "right-wing nuts." Educated persons with no sense of free speech or democracy say there is no issue regarding same sex marriage.
The active opposition to permitting a citizen initiative to go to the voters shows how anti democratic Wolf and Rushing are. They have no shame in proposing such an anti democratic amendment. It is a part of the definition of a psychopath.
Same sex marriage proponents demand that the majority should not vote on the rights of the minority. But they vote over and over again on the rights of persons with disabilities, real rights not privileges.
The same sex marriage crowd is loudly silent on disability rights showing their bigotry. One Cambridge activist told me that if you have a majority you get your rights. If not you don't.
In Cambridge the majority supports same sex marriage. Why are they allowed to vote? The majority of the Convention opposed putting the petition on the ballot. Why were they allowed to vote.
The depravity of the same sex marriage crowd exhibits support for democracy when it goes their way, but opposition to democracy when it does not. That is not the democratic method. It is the method of tyrants.
