For the right to be "angry" at the left for wanting to allow some people the ability to marry is purely and undeniably oppressive. It is a fascist position which, as evidenced in this election, is strongly held by millions on the right.
Whether an individual agrees with the concept or not should not affect the freedoms of millions of people in regard to the concept. But when millions of those individuals vocalize their desire to limit the freedoms of others - that is what comes to pass.

People fear change, but I do not think that this is the main reason against gay marriage. The institution has been a main stay in religion (man and woman). And, they do not want to let the minority of people crap all over their beliefs. And, as those who claim to be open-minded can not let but one side of the argument in.
But People can choose what they want to beleive and noone can change that. But as a right-winger I think that the goverment should sat out of everyone business (on both sides)
