The freedom to treat gays like second class citizens is being threatened :(
Nothing can stop me from treating gays like second-class citizens.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Not really, but there is certainly an obvious sense of inevitability about this.

I've always thought that the result was inevitable - but now it is obviously so.

I'm trying to figure out if it's a good ad, by saying "We're not against gay marriage, we're against them destroying our churches" or if it's so over the top that it's ridiculous.

That narrative fails when the Massachusetts mom says she is upset that she has to watch public schools teach her children that gay marriage is okay.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I doubt it.  They called the Vermont vote a black day in the history of Vermont, if they were pro gay marriage why would they say that?  Allowing Gays to be married does not end marriage anymore but it does seem to end freedom of religion.  All will be forced to worship at the chapel of gay.

To be fair, that's exactly what has happened in Europe.  It's not totally unreasonable that the Christ loonies would be afraid.

Nah Christ lost out in Europe when all the churches fucked themselves by jumping in bed with Nazis and Fascists.

To some degree.  Then again, the Nazis and Fascists were right:  Communism must be destroyed at any cost.

Iowa Senate Leader Mike Gronstal:
QuoteOne of my daughters was in the workplace one day, and her particular workplace at that moment in time, there were a whole bunch of conservative, older men. And those guys were talking about gay marriage. They were talking about discussions going on across the country. And my daughter Kate, after listening for about 20 minutes, said to them: 'You guys don't understand. You've already lost. My generation doesn't care.' I think I learned something from my daughter that day, when she said that.

And, of course, did more than anyone else to make it as threatening and powerful as it was.
