halcyoncmdrRemove the state and federal incentives for marriage. The religious fucks care because they can't comprehend marriage being a non-religious thing. But because there are real world advantages for being married, it creates a religious barrier that should be against the Constitution.
Most LGBTQ folks I know and have talked to don't give a fuck what their acknowledged relationship is called as long as it's recognized by the government for the incentives. If you remove all government incentives for married couples versus individuals, then the actual issue of citizens being denied rights based on religion goes away.
The Log Cabin Republicans would be OUTRAGED if This meant they ALSO couldn't call Autistic Black Kids the N Word! FORTUNATELY that's NOT the case!
OH MY GOD WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH
Gotta protect "the sanctity of marriage" and all that. If we let gays get/stay married, the divorce rate might dip under 45%!
More like if we let gays get married the women-folk might have an option beyond being trapped in a marriage to a potentially abusive husband (them) the way God™ intended.
That's what they're scared of. That women might choose to be alone or "be gay" rather than be with them.
Dog whistling is easier than governing. Especially when your economic policies are universally unpopular (and a scam).
Yeah, it's just another political football like abortion that either side can use to drum up support and fundraise with.
Le both sides anyone?
Two reasons. The first is that Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
And they make sure they are in the first group by shoving other people into the second.
The second reason is that they have the sort of mind that believes in Absolute Order. Everything has a Place, a very rigid set of rules that define what it is, how it can act, and what it can do. If something/someone is Out Of Place, then the very fabric of society will weaken and eventually crumble.
LGBTQ people don’t fit in the boxes labeled ‘proper woman’ and ‘proper man’, so they must be destroyed lest they cause society itself to collapse.
Fun story! I reported the physical assault of a disabled child, which the mother had photos of multiple bruises, that happened at a Troubled Teen facility in Oklahoma City. DHS is refusing to investigate.
You can rape kids, you can beat kids, just don’t be a removed.
Amina like something the media might help with? They hate a spotlight on their shit.
I have been begging anyone to pay attention for more than 9 months. No one cares. I have called every single state agency about this place. I thought having photographic evidence and a recent account would be enough, but nope! They killed a kid in 2003 and the state covered up for them then, so they really just don’t give a shit.
I vote to turn Oklahoma back over to the natives
Technically that already happened. But the OK Republicans have also been stalling and trying to get that reversed too.
Fucking Oklahoma, why is it always Oklahoma lately? Can you not very kindly fuck off already?
Hey, sometimes it's Texas too don't you forget that. I hate it here.
Or Florida. Or Ohio.
Ohio; where a child can be raped and have to go out of state for an abortion..
Still blows my mind that there are vocal and active 'gays for Trump' and 'gay and Republican' groups that have somehow believe they've found a venn diagram overlap of GOP beliefs and theirs - despite all evidence to the contrary.
