Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum Compares Gay Marriage to
Polygamy
.
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum stood
his ground for his strong pro-family policies and positions and was
rudely booed by students who asked him his positions -- that he
answered directly after he was asked by the same students-- when he
tried to compare same-sex marriage to polygamy during a campaign
event in New Hampshire.
Santorum was speaking to a crowd of 200 people at New England
College on Thursday night.
A young man stood up and said that gay marriage should be
legal. It is, in fact, legal in New Hampshire.
"Are we saying that everybody should have the right to marry?"
Santorum asked, according to CBS News.
In our opinion you get to hear the full assurance by the young
students "yes anyone should have the right to marry anyone else" in
the room.
Santorum than asks and asserts his question again "So can 3 men
marry one man?"
And "You have to tell me why you can not use the same logic
and reasoning to apply to allowing 3 men to marry one man. Please
tell me the answer to that?..."
And, Santorum "So if you're not happy unless you're married to
five other people, is that OK?" Santorum asked one student. "Reason
says that if you think it's okay for two [individuals to marry],
then you have to differentiate for me why it's not okay for
three,"
Real Clear Politics and other major outlets says
its "Heated" but it seems clear Santorum is standing his ground and
defending traditional marriage in a simple and heroic manner with a
young crowd that has never been taught logic or morality by today's
education establishment.
