The Amendment Of Georgia House Bill 767

The controversy between marriage equality and the exercise of religious freedom is a confliction between nondiscrimination laws and religious freedom laws. Religious freedom seemed to be an important aspect of an American citizen, after all it is the very first amendment to the constitution. With each American citizen being granted equality by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, discrimination made against an individual based on his/her sexual preference may seem to violate this act. In history, religious organizations typically been immune from state and local laws prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation. However, with the cases of Obergefell v. Hodges and Kim Davis this stance is challenged.

The Georgia Constitution has many differences then you think, from the US Constitution. The differences are determined by the time of creation of both the Georgia and United States constitutions.

The United States Constitution created in 1789 unattended the subject of suffrage.

The constitution of the United States of America is the founding document on which the government of America is built. It currently has twenty-seven amendments. It lines out the specific government practices as well as the system of check and balances. It was first drafted July, 1787 after the first form of government, the articles of confederation, had proven very inefficient to a point where it became almost redundant to have them in place.

The Amendment #19 was included in the Constitution because it gives the women the right to vote. This Amendment was important to framers because the women were given a chance for advancement in life, and it allowed women to have a right to vote. Another important thing was that politicians didn't have a reason to listen to women's rights and issues that are important to women. Since the women are allowed to vote, some got very interested in politics, but there're no women presidents yet.

In John Paul Stevens’s “Six Amendments: How and Why We Should Change the Constitution”, chapter five regards the topic of the death penalty. Stevens points out that death penalty prevents a murderer from murdering again, prevents murder, and gives revenge for society’s outrage. However, a life sentence without parole also prevents a murderer from doing so again and prevents murder. Society has also evolved away from vengeance. The death penalty is also final and those who are falsely accused of a crime would be wrongfully executed. Stevens points out that the “final, yet fallible” argument is enough a reason to abolish the death penalty.

Although the ordinance protects several classes of people within five separate categories, the ordinance became the policy in favor of men in women’s bathrooms. With a lot of attention on transgender people within the last year alone, the media was able to manipulate public perception by focusing on one aspect of the ordinance. Many Houstonians, still weary of the LGBTQ community and ill-informed, were fully against the ordinance, claiming to defend their women and children against predators. Voters believed the ordinance created an open door for sex crime to increase in the city. Consequently, the ordinance failed to pass with a 60% opposing vote. The ordinance for equality should have passed, however, Houstonians focused only on their false perceptions and myths of sexual predators, such as strangers and queers.

The special rules in the house are a tool used in order to set certain parameters and help accommodate floor action for a certain bill. Special rules help get controversial and difficult bills through as most sponsors of bills of this sort are not able to get garner the necessary two thirds or majority support.

It has been a hot debate on whether to retain or repeal the Section 377A. Section 377A is a judgement of sentence to imprisonment for not more than two years for any male who is caught committing sex or indecent acts either in public or private with another male person. A man, Mr Tan Eng Hong, 49, who was charged having oral sex with another man and a gay couple, Mr Gary Lim Meng Suang, 44, and Mr Kenneth Chee Mun-Leon, 37, who have been together for 15 years challenged the Court to repeal the Section 377A in which they claimed to be unconstitutional. With the vote in 2005 and 2010 showing that majority dissent for the acceptance of the lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender (LGBT) community, therefore, the Section 377a should be retained.
