If you have ever said this:
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation under God, indivisible, With Liberty and Justice for all."
You have entered into a contract. You have pledged your absolute loyalty to this country and the ideals for which it stands. You have given your oath upon the symbol of freedom and equality that binds this country together.
If you have then voted against the civil rights of any individual of this country YOU ARE GUILTY OF TREASON. The text that you willingly and knowingly agreed to clearly states: "With Liberty and Justice for all". It does not say "for some, so long as we call their rights something else", it does not say "for only those with whom we agree". The pledge of allegiance to the United States of America could not more clearly state that EVERY citizen of this country is entitled to Liberty and Justice.
I will be more specific: if you live in California and you voted yes on Proposition 8, or live in Arizona or Florida and voted on the equivalent measures, you have committed treason. You have directly violated the pledge that you took, and should be prosecuted as traitors.
This is not an extreme viewpoint, I am simply taking you at your word. If you do not want to be held to this level of legal standard, do not EVER say the Pledge of Allegiance. For those who have already said it, man up and accept the contract you signed.
There is no in-between, there is no maybe. If you pledge loyalty to this country, you cannot then selectively practice its ideals.
Anti-Gay activists are TRAITORS
Those who voted against gay marriage are TRAITORS
Those who actively subvert the rights of others are TRAITORS
Do not claim the privileges afforded by this country if you are unwilling to uphold its most basic tenets.
