Title of article: Nearly half back gay marriage ban

Publication: POLITICO

Date of article: Sep.14.11

Short summary:

Almost half of all Americans support banning gay marriage. 48% said they would favor for same-sex marriage, while 43% said they oppose banning it. More than half of all Americans say same-sex couples should receive the same government benefits.

Issues that I can find:

Do you agree with the same-sex marriage?

What do you think the reason for banning?

My opinion:

I agree with the same-sex marriage. I think there are important things more than sex in the marriage. All people should receive the same government benefits as this article says.
