INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The Indiana state Senate Judiciary Committee voted 7-3 — along party lines — on Wednesday to advance a constitutional amendment which bans both gay marriage as well as civil unions.

Same sex marriage is already illegal in Indiana, but the legislature wants to prevent judges from overturning the current ban.

Indiana Republican legislators are worried that the same thing will happen in their state as it did in Iowa, where in 2009, the state Supreme Court overturned the law banning same-sex marriage.

If they are successful in passing a constitutional amendment, the courts would have no power to overturn it....

1. It must really suck

... to go through life that scared, that pitiful, that ignorant. It sucks even more when the scared, pitiful, and ignorant put their own kind into power.

have tortured mankind throughout the ages. Same type, we just call them something else today. I get soooo fucked fed up with these fucken Dino fools. Another state to add to my list of creepy places to avoid. Pitiful little pinheads with the brains of a bag of rocks.
