   I’m sure the Mormons are hard at work behind the scenes continuing to try and deprive gay people of thier basic rights.

   Thomas Alex, this is concerning people who would normally be able to get a green pass by marrying their partner. The cases that we make a big deal over are the ones where a couple is monogomous or married, but their marriaqge is not recognized federally because of DOMA. Some come from countries where it is illegal or dangerous to be openly gay. This is one of the vital reasons it needs to be repealed.

   Thomas Alex, why do you want to err on the side of violent bigotry?

   Bigotry is not a value anyone should aspire to, why are you proud to be a Bigot?

   This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. In your hearts do not think evil of each other.

   Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.

   “Give me your tired, your poor,
   Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

   So, what the proponents are trying to hide is their inept arguments, their OWN expert admitting that gay marriage is beneficial to the general population– not to mention GLBT folk themselves– live on film.

   Those films will appear on youtube in record time, and DOM will look like the laughingstocks they are.

   That’s what they want to hide.
