As an investigator I probably come across many more same sex couples than the average person would. I am always shocked by the reaction society has to these couples. Let me explain why. I do not see this segment of the population commiting the senseless hate crimes that other groups often do. What I do see in the majority of cases, are some really nice people who just want to be accepted as people. I do not and will not ever understand what the big hassle is about same sex marriages. Oh, I know all the bible thumpers say it is against god's law, but so is inter racial marriage according to some faiths and so is inter faith marriage according to others .This sement of the population does not try to push their beliefs or lifestyle on anyone. So why the big deal on this issue? can any one give me some insight?
