The state legislature is acting like a bunch of Amish. Get into the year 2008. If marriage is so sacred between a man an a woman then why is divorce so high in this country? Everyone should be equal!

No tourism for states that pass antigay laws and constitutional amendments!

Of course right-wingers don’t think Due Process and Equality are for all men and women. They are the new party of Slave Owners who want their plantations back, and reparations for lost money due to the loss of slavery.

If they can break the federal standard for Due Process and Equality, then Dixie will rise again!

Understand that states rights is a big deal to them specifically because of the right to own people.

That is why WE as a community need to push on to repealing DADT and DOMA and various hate-crime law updates thereby enforcing our constitutionally-guarentee to due process and equal access ASAP.

“a state law allowing marriage only between a man and woman violated the constitutional rights of due process and equal protection.”

This ain’t rocket surgery, folks. Either ALL Americans are created equal (and are worthy of equal treatment before the law) or they aren’t. Which shall it be?

“The marriage of Sean Fritz and Tim McQuillan remains the only legal same-sex marriage in the state.”

What about those people legally married in Canaa, Calfornia, Belgium, the Netherlands,Spain, etc.? They, too, are “legally married” – the State f Iowa simply won’t recognize that fact – YET!

It’s time to take an injustice to court, folks.
