Should NH repeal same-sex marriage?

"I'm not going to answer this question because I do not believe the government should regulate, tax, or otherwise handle marriages and this should be left up to religious institutions or a couple who wish to tie the knot. So in the end I guess if the question was 'Should we repeal the marriage law?' I'd say yes. But adding the word 'gay' in there would make me say no as everyone should have the right to marry regardless of sexual orientation, and it is not the governments job to say yes or no; which is the reason why marriage as a government institution was founded so they could control who could or couldn't get married. First it was interracial marriages then it was people with STDs, then it was foreigners."
