Crys and I are NOT getting married until everyone we know can.
Yes, we are supporting our LGBT friends. Everyone always speaks of the "right" to get married...and, as said previously, it's not a right if someone can deny it to you, for whatever reason.
If that means, in our lifetime, that we never get married, then we'll never get married. Given that Indiana is trying to pass legislation right now that defines marriage as between a man and a woman, and even goes so far as to....well, screw it. Here's a copy of the legislation..
Joint Resolution 0013
Definition of marriage. Provides that only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in Indiana. Provides that a legal status identical or substantially similar to that of marriage for unmarried individuals shall not be valid or recognized. This proposed amendment has not been previously agreed to by a general assembly.
Um, no. Fuck that.
