8. Loscocco Is A Nut Case!
This is only an attempt to make sure that gay marriages have no place in society in general. Most reasonable folks would say that making all marriages civil unions is fine (I think so) but the rub is with Sally and Tim down the street. Their civil union would not be recoginzed in Alabama as a marriage, ergo no rights in Alabama. And then you have Bill and Ted. They get their civil union AND go to their church and get supersized to marriage.
This issue is really making me nuts. I am going to my town hall on May 17th to get married. It is not going to matter to anyone but me and my "intended." My neighbors may hate it, but they don't matter.
When you think about it, do you know the relationship status of every person on your street? Do you really care? I don't.
BTW, Loscocco wanted to split the question in the Mass Constitutional Convention. He hates gays so much, that he wanted part one to make marriage for a man & a woman ONLY and part two was to have the legislature "decide at some point in the future" to determine if some sort of civil unions for gays would be addressed. I think we should address whether he should be in the state legislature or NOT.
