So if the courts rule that people can use this initiative to deny gays their rights...
What rights will be next? Will they deny us the right to care for our children? Will they deny us the right to live with our partners?

This whole thing is a slippery slope. Actions that occur today will have far reaching implications around the nation.

As shown in other states, people are not happy with only denying gays the right to marriage. They then went after adoption. You know they'll keep at it.

But where will they stop?

1. that's a very good question
and one that some more conservative people like to ignore. I hope the court has the wisdom to ask themselves that very same question.

How long before it's: White males or even White LANDOWNING males?

We The People need to remind RW cowards that America is bigger than they are. And WE are America.
