One small step for equality, one giant leap for Ireland!

This Friday, Ireland will vote in a referendum on marriage equality i.e. whether or not to allow same-sex marriage. This will hopefully be a huge step forward for our country, which has thus far been overly influenced by the Catholic Church and its conservatism and old-fashioned teachings (that's the nicest way of putting it!)
For anyone interested, here are a couple of clips that capture the mood this week

No one should be denied a union of love.

I feel like same-sex marriage - much like acceptance (not tolerance) of homosexuality itself - has been a much-needed injection into the body of the world. Some veins are wide open, some clogged, some just need a bit of clearing or warming to allow for access.
Slowly and I hope surely, it will spread until no more injections are needed.
Many of us are behind you, Ireland! We'll be watching come Friday.

Of course everyone is fully entitled to their own beliefs and opinions, but all the No side seem to be doing is spreading misinformation and scaremongering. This letter is probably the most disgusting thing I've seen as a result of this referendum

Also love the pie charts - because ya know, Ireland should definitely aspire to be Texas. Or Florida. Truly, that's what the world needs. More Florida.

You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
