This war will not stop as long as people have different opinions. People have constitutional rights to express their opinions.

Now I remain neutral, or rather, unsure on this issue. But I am sure that there’s a middle ground. Since the law defines marriage as a legalized union between a man and a woman, and homosexual people want their unions to be legally recognized, why not give the union of homosexual people another name? Two examples of newly coined words for this special occasion could be “homorrige” or “merriage.” I know many people would regard this as a completely insane idea, but allow me to explain. This is somebody else’s idea, I am merely promoting this because I think it’s a compromise that could help end this war.
