Hmmmm.....a poll

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) has released a new poll that shows most U.S. adults support legal protections for gay and transgender people.

75 percent support marriage, domestic partnerships or civil unions for same-sex couples. But only 47 percent are in favor of gay marriage, with 49 percent opposed.

64 percent favor allowing openly gay people to serve in the military.

63 percent back expanding hate-crime laws to protect gay and transgender people.

51 percent favor fair housing, employment and public-accommodation laws for gay and transgender people.

69 percent oppose laws that ban qualified gay and lesbian couples from adopting children. (Utah has such a statute.)
