27. Is it possible to have a CIVIL discussion about this?
Here's a sampling of snide remarks from this thread:

What actions are YOU taking to make this happen?

Have you noticed the people who say "just call it ALL civil unions" aren't actually doing anything to make that happen?

Exactlty -- the ignorance (willful and honest) on DU on this subject is astounding!

I wonder if people honestly don't see where this is going or if there are disruptors around.


No, we're not disruptors. We're here to learn. We're here to understand. We're here to have a conversation. DU membership has grown significantly over the past few years, even months. Some people are coming to this discussion with misconceptions and questions. We want to support GLBTs, and we're trying to figure out the most effective way to do it within our resources. Snide comments only serve to alienate well-meaning people who are here to learn and understand. So, who are the real disruptors?
