    Yes, because that was clearly meant to persecute heterosexuals, and not because he wanted to reprimand the representative who prevented him from speaking.

    Fallout from the Supreme Court's DOMA ruling has been on display on the floor of the Pennsylvania House, where on Thursday an openly gay state representative asked colleagues to reprimand a member who had prevented him from speaking about the case.
    Oh, wait.

        To be fair, it does appear that the sore loser representative followed the proper procedues, so I don't see any cause for an official reprimand. Public scorn and ridicule, on the other hand would be entirely appropriate....
        If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

          His constituency giving him the boot for his poutrage in 2014 would be better.

              He's just a hustler, but some people will be moronic enough to believe that shtick. Thankfully, those people either live in the deep woods or are holed up in homes filled with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and gopher memorabilia.

                I really wonder how someone could be sane and yet still dedicate their lives to that kind of thing. Just because they're making money doesn't mean they don't believe it.

                  Yeah, I don't know what's worse, assuming he knows it's idiocy and does it for money, or accepting that he really believes it. I suspect the truth is that he believes in a dogma and will say anything to advance it, so he does believe, after a fashion. But man, it scares me to think that pitch could convince anyone who does not already believe. Discerning thinkers are certainly not the audience he speaks to.

                      Am I glad I normally have you on ignore; is the automatic starting of the film necessary?

                        Interesting. It didn't autoplay for me when I posted it but it does now. There doesn't seem to be a tag to edit off the autoplay. Oh well.

                            It auto-played for me.

                                Indiana makes it a felony punishable by $10,000 fine and 18-months in jail to apply for a marriage license as a same-sex couple. Oh, they also made it a Class B misdemeanor for a "clergyman, judge, mayor, city clerk or town clerk-treasurer to perform a same-sex marriage" which would certainly seem to violate the first amendment...
