Sometimes, typos are very telling. Now we know what you really think. You can take the PC hat off now.

My spidy sense says your story is fiction.

Who cares... I was there, my nephews were there, and so was my sister and brother in law. You want affidavits or something?

No, we just want the truth: Are your nephews gay now? More importantly, did you catch the gay bug?

Some of us still have a few morals left.

Like threatening a couple with physical violence in a public venue? In front of kids? Some morals.

There was nothing wrong with my post....

Well, there isn't now. It's gone.

A "couple" isn't two guys. It may be in Vermont and a few other places, but it isn't here nor is it in Washington state.

Because marriage is a basic human right in this country. The SCOTUS, prior to becoming a corporate #######, has made that clear time and again. Obviously, marriage for a same-sex couple will have to be marriage to a same-sex partner. As long as they are denied that right, they are deprived of a basic human right. The case is working it's way up to the SCOTUS and same-sex marriage will prevail. You can live in the past for the rest of your life and yet, the future is still upon us.

I suppose we shall see. If your preferred method of discussion is appeal to what you think the SCOTUS will say in the future, I guess your logic must be infallible.

Personally, I think the SCOTUS is overstepping its bounds to make any ruling about gay marriage with reference to the Constitution since the Constitution does not mention marriage of any kind anywhere, as far as I am aware.

I'm getting the impression that you really really think it would be a good idea for all the Gays to go to Canada.

Is my impression correct?

Ya, but perhaps my motivation for it isn't so clear? I'm very pro SSM, but in the same breath - MAN O MAN - tis way past time for real activity, so IMO any further legalization would just be a band-aid over a festering wound.

--The time is long past for SSM, IMO - should been legalized at Federal Level about 12 years ago, right prior to GWB's inauguration.

--Legislators have continued to fail the GLBT communities across the nation, so concept of 'representative government' for this demographic not seem to exist. No Representative Government? Hey - time to be elsewhere..

--A mass exodus would affect the tax base in USA, in a negative fashion, and I think it's a good thing for USA to get a good slap in the face.

--Would remove one less hot-topic for Bigots to moan about (I hate Bigots, much) so any type of lobbying against SSM would disappear.

So those are my big points about it, not so personal.

Personally, for me, it'd free up some prime real estate just west of downtown Houston, I'm looking to purchase.

Since when did having morals in "that regard" make anyone a bigot? It's not normal in some people eyes...even the INS.

NY state just passed the bill. The march goes on and those that want to stop it are in the minority.

As for the SCOTUS, has it overstepped it's bounds when it ruled in Loving vs. Virginia?

[Darnell 8,478]

ya, that 'bigot' label is a slippery slope, I'll give ya that one.

I view 'the concept' as institutionalized bigotry, on one front, then personal bigotry on another.

IMO, mass exodus would remove all permutations, that particular demographic of USA populace be gone.
