Utter nonsense of marriage inequality

Via Andrew Sullivan at The Daily Dish, I challenge all marriage equality opponents to watch this and even try to claim that it makes any sense at all:

There’s no way that barring two women in a loving relationship from marrying while allowing one of those lesbian women to marry a random man supports families, helps children, protects society or anything else (fill in any of the other arguments — all lame — that marriage equality opponents spew).

But as insane as it is, this video depicts the sad, shameful reality in the vast majority of the United States.

If we truly mean “liberty and justice for all,” if we truly want all citizens to have “equal protection of the laws,” then it’s long past time for this injustice — and the insane injustice of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell — to end.
