Oh, I'm not really concerned about this ... I don't think it's going to go that far (they already tried this once).

However, it does show what happens when the government decides that some law-abiding citizens are not worthy of the same rights and privileges as other citizens. It gives people like this hate filled "Christian" leader tacit approval to actually try to hurt gay people in the most insidious ways.

In fact, unless their m.o. has changed since I put them on ignore, even the bigots on this forum pretty much use "the laws say you can't marry" as the reason gays shouldn't have the right to marry. There was even one jerk who used to say that everybody in America can get married - as long as they 'qualify." I think that's what they used to say about blacks and voting, wasn't it? It's transparent and sophomoric rhetoric which they seem to think gives some semblance of validity to irrational bigotry.
