Marion Barry Predicts “Civil War” Over Gay Marriage in D.C.

May 6th, 2009

Yesterday, Washington, D.C.’s city council voted to legalize same sex marriages performed elsewhere in the United States. The decision was almost unanimous except for the nay vote of former Mayor Marion Barry, who represents a district in the southeastern quadrant of the city. “All hell will break loose,” said Barry, who is fiercely opposing the vote. “We may have a civil war,” he added. “The Black community is just adamant against this.” Outside of the chamber, a group of protesting ministers from D.C. and the Maryland suburbs caused an uproar after the decision. “What you’ve got to understand is 98 percent of my constituents are Black and we don’t have but a handful of openly gay residents,” Barry said. “Secondly, at least 70 percent of those who express themselves to me about this are opposed to anything dealing with this issue. The ministers think it is a sin, and I have to be sensitive to that.” Security guards were called in to calm the protests. Gay activists in D.C. are calling Barry, once a strong ally, a “hypocrite.” They say he is siding with protesters only because its politically convenient right for him now.

Gays should fight for civil unions and leave this to estate planners, they are going to expose alot of deep dark feelings about gays that i dont think they are prepared to see. as much as they feel they are persecuted now, if they push too hard on their agenda they could find themselves fighting in ways they did not intend.

This is just too much! If people would research this type of society like they do everything else they will see that even in the Biblical days when and where it was accepted the society was eventually destroyed. So now we are starting to destroy our society by letting man marry man and women marry women. How are you going to produce a family naturally? You can’t. So that means eventually humans will dye out. Don’t you see that God’s most perfect order is marriage between a man and a women so they can produce.

I would love to see them get angry about education, crime, high school dropouts, drug dealers and filthy neighborhoods.

Oh yeah, David what are you afraid of…God isn’t coming anytime soon. So, don’t sell your home or insurance.



Chris Said on

Oh yeah, to the biblical idiots. Do your research and you will see that God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for other reasons than just homosexuality.

What upsets me even more, is these people with this behavior, are making the children feel there is a choice of which gender you must mate with. the world cannot reproduce without water, a seed cannot grow without fertilizer two of the same sexes cannot bring forth life.

Did God say to Noah bring only male or only female of every species onboard and we will start a new? We are a people destined for destruction and it seems we have open our arms and say i will carry you evil for as long as i live.

Also i cry shame on all BLACK people who are all part of this nonsense the things i see on the Net and TV shows to see black men behaving like women willing to fight for another man…ohhh..my…God i am deeply saddened.



banton Said on

Don’t worry woman i will never leave you i will always be there to make you feel loved and i know you will do it for me too.

Thanks to my Dad and my Mom love you both.
