First, can I just say how appalled I am at how someone that hopes to become Miss USA, to represent our country as an ambassador for "world peace" and whatever else it is that she would've done can be so narrow-minded. How can you hope to represent your country when you don't have respect for everyone in it? I am a strong believer in "to each their own" and what not, but when you have a woman on-stage representing her state (which happens to be quite liberal and full of LGBT's) and young girls watching and idolizing these women... then she puts on this display of unequality and quite possibly ignorance, it is a shame.
Now, I am not one to judge or dislike someone based on their beliefs, but if I were California, I would be ashamed. This could be quite the case of ignorance to the whole situation... maybe she has no homosexual friends or family and doesn't quite understand the fight. I am not necessarily pro gay marriage, but I want to be treated and given the same rights that every other person has. I have no problem with her or anyone else believing that a marriage (something that many people don't take very seriously if you look at the divorce rate, but that's a subject for another day) should stay between a man and woman, I don't really want your marriage. I just want the rights to see the woman I love in the hospital... or by some strange twist of all my reasoning, I want to have children, I want to be able to adopt and provide a loving home to a child in need. My life is not a sin to me. If you believe it is, then don't step in my shoes. Take your beliefs and believe them, but don't try and make me or anyone else follow your lead.
And as for Miss California, I'd really hate to be her publicist.
