- I like the idea of that law being passed. I feel that Colorado has
- made a very good point with this law: that the Constitution guarantees everyone
- rights and there should not be laws giving certain individuals preferential
- treatment. I do like a smaller government but I do not see how this law really
- creates a problem of bigger government.
-
- I think that this law sends a clear message to the liberals who support
- gay rights legislation that the people will stand up against them. Because of
- this law a boycott has been called by the gays showing how silly they really
- are. I would go to Colorado just because they called the boycott and that
- there shouldn't be to many gays there because of it.
