Morons

Personally, I couldn’t care less about gay marriage.  I’m not gay, so it really doesn’t affect me.  My problem is with the tactics that the gay rights’ community uses.  I think they are stupid for trying to go about change the way they are.

In Washington state, a group is trying to get an initiative on the ballot:

Initiative 957 was filed by the Washington Defense of Marriage Alliance. That group was formed last summer after the state Supreme Court upheld Washington’s ban on same-sex marriage.

Under the initiative, marriage would be limited to men and women who are able to have children. Couples would be required to prove they can have children in order to get a marriage license, and if they did not have children within three years, their marriage would be subject to annulment.

All other marriages would be defined as “unrecognized” and people in those marriages would be ineligible to receive any marriage benefits.

Will this do anything to advance the debate?  Of course not.  This is a cheap publicity stunt designed to draw attention to their cause.  In fact, it will likely draw such ire that it will further entrench those opposed to gay marriage in their positions.

I don’t actually belive that these people really want gay marriage.  If they ever got it, they would have to find something else to complain about.  This way, they can continue to act oppressed and continue being martyrs.  That’s all they really want anyway.
