It's a survey, not a vote. They are still human rights issues that are or have been heavily debated in public before. We have never asked for a sporting code or football club to pass judgement or pick a side in similar issues.
We shouldn't be publicly berating a club for sitting on the fence a little bit, even when the statement was clearly heavily slanted towards support of SSM and they are being s**t canned for not supporting it.
One person has now come out (pun intended) and claimed that they will cancel their membership and probably never get another one (bet that changes when we climb up the ladder) because the club wasn't strong enough in their stance. She supports SSM and the club has strongly inferred that they hold the same stance as her, but respect the rights of others to not hold the same opinion.
It's head-scratching.
