Quote of the day on letting the majority decide on the minority's civil rights


Given society's prejudices against fatness, how would Christie feel if we let voters decide if obese people could marry and have legally recognized families?  

From Towleroad: 


NJ Governor Chris Christie, who last year vetoed a marriage equality bill passed in both houses of the NJ legislature, reiterated his position on same-sex marriage in an interview that aired on CBS' Sunday Morning this morning:

"You do not believe in same-sex marriage?" Smith asked.

"I do not," Christie said. "But what I will tell you is that I understand that good people of good will have a difference of opinion on this. And so my view on it is, put it on the ballot. Let the people decide."
