Great news. Another dagger in the withered heart of movement conservatism.
It's nice to see that some Republicans came along for the ride this time. Maybe (at least in some states) the Republican Party is ready to grow up.

Within ten minutes after the vote my wife got a call from an old friend in NY who was crying and laughing at the same time so much that she was hard to understand.
I'd ask, "What's the sane argument that this is a bad thing?", if I thought there was a sane argument to be had. But there isn't. I'll guess that similar laws will pass around the country within my lifetime except for in a few horrific holes of deep ignorance.
Looking forward to it.
now can i get get gay divorce court tv show pleez?
but on the bickering gay people tip, the best fight i ever seen was at 13th and locust in philly between two leather muscle dudes. shirts ripped off, body slams, heads pounded on pavement, haymakers connecting to jaws....shit was ridiculous. i was stopped at a light and i think i was there in my car through 4 lights until they ended the fight and hugged each other, sobbing loudly. it was epic. i couldnt believe they didnt knock each other unconscious
back to the original post...big day for everybody and its a wonderful sign that some republicans are coming around on the issue.
discrimination = :nagl:
probably because its still new , and more special because it wasnt admitted before.. maybe..
or because you can watch football on sunday with your partner without the nagging ha.
the sad thing thing about accepting one group of people , is that most likely another group gets excluded more.. seems like the hate must go somewhere..
also they justify it by feeling open minded by opening up to a certain group of people, that they grant themselves some other hate instead..
humans..
anyway congrats to the NYG's.
And as a famous comedian once said "I'm all for gay marriage. I think they've got just as much right to be as miserable as the rest of us".

Jamal = wrong.
Thanks batmon for understanding, needed that..
I said more, because for some its kind of an excuse to project more hate on other "hated" people that are still ok to hate on by the masses (untill that one gets resolved in time..etc etc..)
By opening up to a certain group they can feel like they have admitted and feel like a more open minded person, which at the same time gives fear of budging too much, so that gets compensized by excercising more hate on the group that is still not accepted by (their group's) majority..
Also some accept a group as an enfocement to their excuse of hating a specific group.
for example:It already happens at a young age with kids.
Lisa is in a group of 5 kids, she doesnt like two of them Jeff and Sam
The other 4 kids get along somewhat , but one kid (one of the two she hates) is more excluded:Jeff.
So what does lisa do? she "accepts" the other kid she dislikes; Sam, so she wont be the paria of the group by hating 2/5th of the group.. By including Sam, she can legitmize hating Jeff , and can express it out loud even, and try to totally exclude Jeff from the group, and she will have much more support now from the other members of the group.
Well its kinda weakly explained here, but I think you get it.
Its all psychology and having been through discrimination ever since i was a shorty.. you pick stuff up.
also true.
you're talking complete and utter bullshit in this thread.
first: you can choose other words for saying what you want to say, have some respect.
And also, not understanding doesnt make it bullshit..dont get mad.
word @ batmon
, im tired.. im off.
shockingly, the place hasn't degenerated into sodom & gomorrah.
i'm happy for this.
Though there is a cannibal on the Vancouver Canucks.

Thanks for identifying yourself. Send me your address and I'll send you the straw.
With that said, this is pretty much where I am at to which many of them said "too bad, dissagree, get over it...just be happy":
