1. That really sucks.

I don't even know why gay marriage is a political issue. Let people be.

2. Awwww, c'mon, Nytemare....

you know that is the raison d'etre of the fundies and homophobes. We're a handy target and they take pot shots at us every damn chance they get.

I keep believing that one day, gay couples have rights like everyone else. HA! FAT CHANCE!! Every time the courts have declared in our favour in places like California, the fundies manage to pass propositions. Why the FUCK are these people allowed to vote on our civil rights?! Why the FUCK is this even an issue in the 21st Century?! As always, fundie lies and ignorance take the day.

3. So now Florida has changed its Constitution to include discrimination

How proud the "Christians" must be of themselves. :(

After all, they are doing GAWWWWWWWWD'S work.
