Civil Unions or Civil Disorder?
Apparently, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger feels that not only will gay marriage destabilize hetero marriages, but that it will also cause civil disruptions and chaos. "The next thing we know is there are injured or there are dead people, and we don't want to have that. We don't want to get to that extent." What the hell is that? That's rif*ckindiculous! Hallye Jordan of the CA attorney general's office said there had been no report of riots or threats to public safety. Perhaps our God-given rights should simply be acknowledged and we could move past this and on to bigger issues. And may I just ask who are the people who would be causing civil unrest? Gov. Schwarzenegger proves only that he is ignorant about the issue, and more interested in playing politics than people's rights. America doesn't need another leader like this actor.
I've often wondered what would happen if queer Americans were to be denied their rights for a further prolonged period of time, and even to have their rights reduced from what we have now. Another Stonewall? I'm telling you, the last place they want a replay of Stonewall is in San Francisco - those drag queens kick ass!
