If you want to get married find a preacher and get married, If that aint good enough then move some place that will issue a piece of paper. Just dont get in my face or make an issue of something sacred with your own perversions. I manage to keep my perverted acts behind closed doors. Why can't you?
Well, as a heterosexual, I realize that I have more rights than my gay relatives and friends. If it were really a libertarian ideal of 'behind closed doors' then IMO everything would be fine. However, the laws being proposed to prohibit adoption by gay singles or couples, and the latest redefinition of the rules on security clearances appear to indicate that the goverment is pushing back the clock.

It just seems that a lot of people are beginning to make it their business to nose into the private behavior of citizens.
