WAY TO GO MARRY-LAND!!!
My state got it
right!
“Until
this election, gay marriage had been defeated more than 30 times when put to voters
around the country. But Maryland bucked that trend, voting to allow gay and
lesbian couples to obtain civil marriage licenses. The state legislature passed
a bill making the change earlier this year, and Governor Martin O’Malley signed
it. But opponents successfully petitioned to put the issue before voters, who
offered their endorsement Tuesday.” (Washington Post)
While it's disturbing to see any group's basic civil rights put to a public vote to decide whether they should receive them or not, it is still fabtastic that Maryland came through!
ReplyDeleteHere, here! Echoing Fireblossom's comment. Sad commentary when we as a nation of such wondrous intended founding are still dealing with 'basic' human issues. Phew, glad I got that off my chest. Thanks to this wonderful
