I mean the vast majority of people in the country are not gay so if a few gay people want to have a go at it, wtf? makes for more job openings in the "family law" segment of the legal profession for the eventual divorces.<br /><br />disclosure: I'm a pretty conservative person in my own practices. Just don't give a shit and have other fish to fry. the funniest frickin' show on t.v. right now (other than Family Guy) is that Modern Family show (imho)<br />- I love that "Cam" character.<br />JeffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9619963.post-46956472480453933922010-01-22T07:43:40.440-08:002010-01-22T07:43:40.440-08:00Back to the imaginary bogey-man of a theological s...Back to the imaginary bogey-man of a theological state lurking around the corner; maybe it will come goose-stepping down the street with the ghost of Harry Truman leading the crusade shouting "We're gonna get that heretic, HL Mencken, after all these years."<br /><br />Gay marriage doesn't have popular support; not in CA, not anywhere. It will, over a couple more decades, but if it enacted through the courts, over the clear wishes of the public, it will be a simmering and divisive issue for a very long time to come.<br /><br />There is nothing the gay marriage advocates will not do to get their way: judge-shopping, legal technicalities, appeals to the federal government, etc. If they lose in one direction, they change their arguments and try another; another interest group gaming the courts to get done by legal fiat what they already know would be a dead issue with the electorate. They may even have a case, but their methodology is a double-edged sword, and when the legal system begins to supplant the ballot system, that same road can be used to deliver all matter of pernicious men and their bad ideas. <br /><br />At some point, you drop the urge to compel someone to change their mind and begin to persuade them to do so; it takes more time and effort, but the results are surer and last longer.ubu roihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05197501119279591644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9619963.post-25790908855056088872010-01-22T06:31:54.256-08:002010-01-22T06:31:54.256-08:00This is my fear.

And they've said no to same-sex marriage and evolution." WHAT?! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!<br /><br />It's just in my nightmares now. Hopefully won't be a reality.Negocios Loucoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12473763866587661478noreply@blogger.com
