do people listen to themselves?
check this quote:
“If they want to legalize gay marriage, what they should do is bring an initiative themselves and ask the people to approve it,” said Frank Schubert, co-chairman of the Proposition 8 campaign. “But they don’t. They go behind the people’s back to the courts and try and force an agenda on the rest of society.”
what is proposition 8? one group (some voters) forcing an agenda on the rest of society. the size of the group is irrelevant to the concept and weight of the phrase “force an agenda on the rest of society”; cretinous blowhard frank schubert is attempting to sanctify through rhetorical jib jab his action which is ultimately worse than that he criticizes, for proposition 8 attempts to limit the perceived benefits of a certain class of ostensibly non-aggressive tax victim — something that isn’t any of his or any other voter’s goddamned business.
“Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”
busybodies, MYOB. you may begin by getting out of marriage coercion entirely, regardless of sex preference. dig this other snippet from the same article:
Glen Lavy, an attorney for the Proposition 8 campaign, called the lawsuits “frivolous” and “a brazen attempt to gut the democratic process.”
hey, asshole: the US constitution was “a brazen attempt to gut the democratic process.”
sadly, it failed. shooting at a gang while they’re raping some woman is “a brazen attempt to gut the democratic process.”
and yeah, i get that the subject of homo marriage is more complex than this post addresses.
