"gay people have the same right to marry as straights - the right to marry a person of the opposite sex."

Conservatives see things in black and white without the nuances - since they are in fact saying they'd rather some straight people end up in such a position than just let people be as they are. So they are sentencing some straight people to such a thing.

They are just cruel people, who think they have theirs, and now want to dictate how others should live or be miserable just to satisfy their ideas of how things should be.
