Petition to keep MARRIAGE between ALL sexes, straight, gay & Trans, as EQUAL!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Recently a certain gentleman in the UK started a petition to get EQUAL MARRIAGE RIGHTS for gays and lesbians who are living under British citizenship, REVERSED! To date this petition has been signed by over 2500 people approx. As a gay man I find this insulting and wrong!
The gentleman in question states in HIS petition that marriage should ONLY be allowed to happen between straight couples. His name is William George. This man and his supporters could in 6 months potentially get enough signatures to have a Parliamentary discussion and vote. Please, those who are supporters of equal rights for all, please sign this counter petition to get this stopped. EQUAL RIGHTS COUNT!
