Mon Jun 29, 2009 at 19:16:17 PM EDT


EVERYBODY TAKE COVER! WARN YOUR FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS, AND FAMILIES! CRANK UP THIS VIDEO TO FULL BLAST! THE SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE IS UNDER ATTACK!!!  

The Kalamazoo City Commission has unanimously passed a nondiscrimination ordinance for sexual orientation:

It will prohibit discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people when it comes to hiring, housing and other accommodations. The ordinance goes into effect in July.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!! THEY ARE OUT TO GET US AND DESTROY OUR WAY OF LIFE! NOW MY PARENTS' MARRIAGE OF 35 YEARS IS IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE MEMBERS OF THE K'ZOO COMMISSION HAVE DECIDED TO PUSH THE BALL FORWARD ON EQUALITY RATHER THAN DOING THE RIGHT THING AND CHEATING ON THEIR SPOUSES!!!

RUN FOR YOUR WIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!

(End sarcasm)

Why end the sarcasm? (4.00 / 1)
There are sooooo many deliciously awful examples of sanctimonious straight men endangering marriage without the assistance of gay & lesbian couples...

... just ask Jenny Sanford or Wendy Vitter or Darlene Ensign.

Can't we have a little bit of fun? Pleeeease??

Marriage under ATTACK?????? (0.00 / 0)
I have read and re-read these posts and can't figure out if it is sarcasm or someones stupid opinion. It's about time the K-Zoo commission finally stood up for the rights of all citizens. Marriage isn't under attack the Heterosexual Men of the city do that pretty well on their own. This measure is about rights inclusion and discrimination of a group of people, not rights abolition.

Total sarcasm. (4.00 / 1)

Scotty's totally being sarcastic here.  In fact, he and I were talking the other night about how the fundies get their shorts in knots about how same-gender marriage is somehow a threat to opposite-gender marriage when my parents?  Opposite gender and all that - 41 years and going strong.  If their marriage isn't threatened by the gay agenda (what with me working for it and being a flaming liberal),then I'm pretty sure the fundies etal have far more serious issues than "the Gays".  Might have something to do with how in right wing circles, women are treated as second class citizens... but that's just a guess.

You'll find that most of the regular posters/commenters here at MichLib (with a few glaring exceptions) removing discriminatory language from federal/state/local laws and/or adding in protective language to ensure equal treatment.



Do stupid people know they are stupid?
