Gay and lesbian couples from Europe and more than 20 states have come to San Francisco City Hall since city officials decided to begin marrying same-sex couples six days ago.
City officials said 172 couples were married Tuesday, a pace that would bring the total number who have taken vows promising to be "spouses for life" to over 3,000 by Friday.
President Bush has said that he strongly believes marriage should be defined as between a man and a woman.
Where do you stand in this debate?
I believe gay couples should have the right to marry. They should be afforded the same rights heterosexual couples enjoy. I don't see any reason otherwise.
