please see above...thank you very much for your love and support of this group of folks who want no more than to be "not a special group"
Why is this important?
Equal Rights does intrinsically not discriminate -right? except in some cases - wrong! Bigotry is not dead, just head for the nearest Republican and/or Right Wing group (in person, on the internet, at rallies and parades, and yes, friendships!) and discuss a favorite issue - taxes. Because the current law does not allow a legal agreement defining marriage as available option to same sex couples these brothers and sisters, friends and family, are denied, the same economic benefits that are offered to heterosexuals, the current "reigning group" majority. The old mantra of exposure to children, illness, lewdness (sooo old fashioned and out-dated) and against mainstream religion has been taken apart, dissected by every group from social psychiatry to following the pack mentality to ignorance. In this century, in our lifetime, how absurd to deny any sect of people a denial or refusal to love and cohabit and form a family.
