Let readers decide

Dear Editor,

The gay marriage debate continues across the country, and even those of us in Massachusetts can respect the decisions made in other states. However, with a title of "Common sense prevails" in reference to denying gays marriage rights, this article loses objectivity.

I hold your paper to the same standards of any paper I read, and ask that opinions be kept to the op-ed, while the articles are written to let the readers decide, on their own, where they stand on an issue.
