Would you like to read Kentucky's latest sad "logic" for why it is OK to ban The Gay from gay-marrying each other? You know, the Kentucky whose governor is a "Democrat"? In an argument labeled absurd by gay marriage advocates, [Gov. Steve] Beshear's lawyer says in a brief filed last week at the U.S. Supreme Court that "men and women, whether heterosexual or homosexual, cannot marry persons of the same sex" under Kentucky law, making the law non-discriminatory.
Please let the 6th Circuit Court know there are places where marriage equality has been legal nationwide for a decade or more with no society-destroying effects or Armageddon-type happenings. I mean, Canada hasn't been swallowed by the earth, has it? I haven't looked in a while, though, so who knows.
Equality shouldn't rely on legal manoeuvrings, but should spring from the will of the people.
Attorneys actually wrote this? Ones that passed the BAR?
This is why bans on certain kinds of guns are ok with everyone.
Because they keep both gun-nuts as well as gun-haters from owning certain kinds of guns.
MAKES PERFECT SENSE, RIGHT?

They were probably IN the bar when they wrote it.
I guess that's why anti-abortion laws are fair, too. They also prevent men from having abortions.

It's a choice, remember? Just ask Dr Carlson and his bit on the side, Dan Savage.
It's discrimination to discriminate against discrimination but not if you discriminate first. See? Easy peasy.
at least the TN argument is attached to reality by a thread . . . a stupid, thin, weak, frayed and on fire thread . . . but an actual thread.
this KY argument doesn't even aknowledge reality.
[i know . . . splitting hairs]
When this doesn't work, will they try holding their breath until they turn blue?
A lot of people seem sure that the bigots on the Supreme Court are going to make a legal, sound ruling.
I don't understand how anyone can expect that.
