Last year we were concerned that City Walk’s Centrepoint build was increasingly vacant.
Well it seems to be coming back to life. The Landmark Cafe putting a big service frontage onto City Walk has some real potential.
I particularly like the way the interior plays with relics of bygone ages like penny farthing bicycles and The Canberra Times.

Eh, I googled the flowchart name and found the first site that showed it. My bad. Still doesn’t take away from the humour of the image.

Evidented by the fact that gay marriage is recognised in Australia?

Interesting that you link to an article that systematically debunks the flowchart in question.

I think you will find the majority waqnts gay coupkles to have the exact same rights as hetero couples. Its on;y the vocal minority thats against it.

Because its segregation.
Children need positive male and female role models. They can be inside or outside the home. Otherwise what about all the widowers who raised children in single sex parented homes? Schools and community/sports groups and the friends of the parents provide this. Most parents regardless of gender try to ensure this. I have never ever met a gay person who didn’t have straight friends or family.
There is nothing wrong with thier gay people, they’re happy, not hurting anyone, who cares.
I just don’t belive in changing something just because some a minority group keeps whinging about it.
The word marriage would apply to homosexual couples already, if a majority of Australians agreed with such a change, but the fact of the matter is that it’s not something that most people care too much about. Yeah you’ve got your redneck brigade, but that doesn’t constitute the majority of Australians.

If the rights they confer or protect are the same, why are you still trying to upset people?

Because of … because … because … children need a mother and a father …. um …. because …. the church and religion and stuff … um … stop being bigoted against me for being bigoted.

Why not just… stop whinging?
if marriage and same sex civil unions are the same, then why not call them all marriage?
Report the discrimination to the Human Rights Commission: http://www.hreoc.gov.au/complaints_information/index.html
“The Australian Human Rights Commission can investigate and resolve complaints of discrimination, harassment and bullying based on a person’s:
sex, including pregnancy, marital status, breastfeeding, family responsibilities and sexual harassment
disability, including temporary and permanent disabilities; physical, intellectual, sensory, psychiatric disabilities, diseases or illnesses; medical conditions; work related injuries; past, present and future disabilities; and association with a person with a disability
race, including colour, descent, national or ethnic origin, immigrant status and racial hatred
age, covering young people and older people
sexual preference, criminal record, trade union activity, political opinion, religion or social origin (in employment only)”
Whether it covers “association with a sexual preference” isn’t clear, but will the owner be charged with a hate crime if the police were called over the assault?

Civil Unions say what?

Do you know what descrimination means?
Comic_and_Gamer_Nerd said :
He’s not discriminating?
I only believe in gay marriage when both chicks are hot.

Tell me, if you discrinminate against somebody becuase of their sexuality, does that make you a bigot or not?
