Don’t Legislate Love

June 6, 2006

I’m sick and tired of all this grandstanding bullshit. I want Hayes to be brought up in a tolerant country, and I just bought a house so I’m not gonna move. So, please, please, please stop trying to legislate love. It’s not only unconstitutional, it’s immoral.

See, I live in a state where same-sex marriages are legal. I can tell you from experience that this has TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY torn our social fabric (go ahead, take that out of context, I dare you). People are running around shooting each other, robbing each other, calling each other names and doing other totally illegal activities. Oh, wait, that happens in your state too? Hmmm… then I guess nothing has really changed.

Gee, what a surprise. I am totally shocked. I thought for sure I’d be killing my neighbors by now and BBQing their kidneys for dinner.

Weird.

So, politicians shut your pie-holes about this same-sex marriage Constitutional ammendment thing. We all know that it’s not going to pass. Instead, let’s staighten our crooked politics instead of our non-straight populace.

I know that you may not agree with it on a religious level, and that’s ok. Agreeing to disagree is one of the things that we should relish about our Constitution mandated freedom, not seek to constrict. So, for all you who are religiously against same sex marriage, don’t marry someone that’s of your same-sex. No one will think the worse of you, I promise.

But don’t tell me I can’t do it. If we start there, next thing you know we’ll be listening in on phone cal… oh wait, nevermind. We’ll be getting into unneccesary millitary conflic… hmmm… Our politicains will be having sex with intern… crap. (See, I’m sort-of equal opportunity.) We’ll be legislating the soap we can buy. Yes, that’s what we’ll be doing.

I know from experience that allowing same-sex marriages in Massachusetts has changed nothing. Except, perhaps, our willingness to accept others. Last I checked, that was a good thing.

    I’m in Mass as well. It’s unbelievable talking to people from the South or Utah and seeing the shocked look on their face when I tell them same-sex marriage has not destroyed my life. That, geez, I haven’t even noticed a difference. I don’t know what they must think would happen. Married gay couples parading the streets and corrupting their children? I can’t even imagine.

    Let me just say loud and clear that “I am in a same-sex relationship (for 13 years now) I have a kid and twins on the way AND given the way straight people have messed up “marriage” (501% Divorce rate?); I have never even considered marriage a viable option for myself–and the same goes for many people of my generation straight or gay.”

    People should be concerned about the institution of marriage, but it’s not the courts and gay people who are gonna wreck it.

    Really. I know politicians are camera and cash seeking automotons that will say ANYTHINg to draw attention to themselves, but aren’t there better issues to demagogue?

    Know what quality daycare in Shrewsbury costs, for example?
