“To this culture warrior, gay marriage is not a vital issue. I don't believe the republic will collapse if Larry marries Brendan. However, it is clear that most Americans want heterosexual marriage to maintain its special place in American society. And as long as gays are not penalized in the civil arena, I think the folks should make the call at the ballot box. Traditional marriage is widely seen as a social stabilizer, and I believe that is true.” IfsThinkingWantShouldBelieveLongCultureI BelieveSocialIssuesClearSpecialEvolutionGayDon't BelieveFolksBoxesTraditionalWarriorRepublicCollapseArenaGay MarriageBallotsLarryAmerican SocietySpecial PlacesTraditional MarriageHeterosexual Marriage Author:Bill O'Reilly

“There is a very broad theory that society gets the right to hang, as the individual gets the right to defend himself. Suppose she does; there are certain principles which limit this right. Society has got the murderer within four walls; he never can do any more harm. Has society any need to take that man's life to protect itself? If any society has only the right that the individual has, she has no right to inflict the penalty of death, because she can effectually restrain the individual from ever again committing his offence.” IfsMenNeedsDoeCertainIndividualCan DoPrinciplesFourTheoryWallProtectLimitsHarmBroadsPenaltiesMurdererDeath PenaltyOffenceFour Walls Author:Wendell Phillips
