Ken Cuccinelli on Civil Rights

Government shouldn't redefine marriage

Cuccinelli: Strongly Agree

Traditional marriage ought to be protected

Cuccinelli said his views on homosexuality or gay marriage had not changed, but he was ready for the attack. "The notion that because I believe marriage ought to be protected, because I believe life begins at conception ... there are lots of Virginians who share my sincerely held beliefs."

Homosexuality is against nature and harmful to society

Cuccinelli said that his beliefs about "the personal challenge of homosexuality" had not changed but that as governor, he would strive to make Virginia a place where everyone has equal opportunity.
