Conservative author and commentator Ann
Coulter has denied that gay men and lesbians are not allowed to marry
in most states.
Coulter made her remarks during an
appearance on Fox Business Network's Stossel which was taped
at the International Students for Liberty Conference in Washington,
D.C.
Students in the audience were heard
booing to Coulter's reply to host John Stossel's question: “Why
can't gays get married?”
“Well, they can. They have to marry
a member of the opposite sex,” she replied.
“This is another one where you're
just sucking up to liberals when there are big fights,” Coulter
continued.
“No, we believe the individual should
be left alone,” Stossel said.
“Marriage is the most important
institution to civilize young people. I'd make divorce a lot more
difficult. Liberals want to destroy the family,” Coulter answered.
In
2011, Coulter told a gay student that he has “no fewer rights
than heterosexuals have,” adding that he could get married: “It
just has to be a girl.”
