Calif. Senate OKs same-sex marriage law
It's a step, an important one but simply a step. Our Governator says he won't sign it because of a voter initative thingie a few years ago but I think the public's attitudes have changed since then.
Honestly, you haven't heard anything about 'Gay Marraige' or the issues behind it, you really don't think about it too often, it's not a part of a majority of people's lives, and on the ballott it says "Marriage is between a man and woman, yes no" well duh the majority of people are going to vote yes. However if it says "A civil union is between two consenting legal age adults" I think just as many people would say, well sure. I really don't think the distinction is so ingraned for the majority of people that they honestly care.
Two people making a committment, being a partnership is a special thing and should be celebrated. Divorce rates are so high with hetrosexual couples lets let everyone get married to bring those numbers up a bit!
As for the slippery slope, lets deal with that later, right now I'd like equality for everyone and the government out of people's bedrooms.
