For or Against Equality

All Anne Arundel Community College students, in an unofficial survey, said that they are for same-sex marriage rights.

Etienne Brown, 18, a graphic design major, agrees to grant same-sex couples the right to marry. "I believe love is love," said Brown, who is openly gay. "I want to be able to get married to someone I love."

Question 6, which is on the Maryland election ballot for November 6, will allow same-sex couples, in Maryland, to obtain a civil marriage license if the majoraty of votes is "For."

Jacob Ledezme, 21, a history major, says that he is for question 6. "A good friend of mine was gay," Ledezme said. He also said that he has no problem with same-sex marriage. "It doesn't matter what someone's sexual orientation is. If you love someone, you should be allowed to marry them."

Question 6 is a responce to Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley's Civil Marriage Protection Act that was brough up on March 1, 2012 that would allow same-sex marriage. Question 6 is a referendum that was brought up after a signing of signatures by Md. people who oppose same-sex marriage.

By November 6, 2012, people of Md. will be out voting either for or against Question 6 and we will see if we are moving forward in nation-wide marriage equality or not.
