“... Since we have all been given free will, let’s use our will to let others be free. Gay and lesbian couples believe in commitment, family and love. If you don’t believe me, did you happen to notice that all that is being asked for is the right to be married, which ironically promotes commitment, family and love? Join me and support marriage equality.”
