I want us all to have the same rights and privileges. However, I have to agree, the case that was brought did not show cause. Now, how do we create the cause seems to be the problem. If we have to discriminated against to have a case, that seems counter productive. If I know that when I apply for some right, be it federal or local, and can show cause, why can a court not hear the case...But fine, let's first show that we applied. Personally, I feel the state should get out of the marriage business. It is a religious rite, not a civil right. We do separate between religion and state, Don't WE?
