Should homosexuals be more accepted in society?
Definitely! Two points to consider in your arguments. 1) The primary arguments put forth against homosexuals are religious in nature. In light of the way the first amendment has been broadly interpreted, shouldn’t those arguments be considered as violating the Establishment Clause if they are implemented as public policy? 2) The 14th amendment says this: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” Shouldn’t that mean that laws designed to prevent gay people from having all the rights of straight people, including marriage, are unconstitutional on their face? Hope this give you something to chew on for your paper.
