Frankly, I'm a little sick of straight people claiming that dropping the word marriage or compromising in any way would be terrible, mainly because they're not the ones who have to live with the consequences. That said, I have no idea if it would work.

What say you?
I say the way marriage is now its CLEARLY a standard... Its no different then denying a blind man a drivers license because he cant meet the standards required to drive.

IF they want to legalize gay marriage they will have to write an entirely new Amendment for it.

Challenging on the basis of discrimination is fucking stupid and a waste of time.

Its almost as if the gays want gay marriage to be legalized out of sympathy.
