14. As somebody who just had her 12 year marriage annulled by the voters of this state,

I really don't care what you think.

I am not religious and did not choose to marry in a church. In this state that obviously makes me a second class citizen.... (in addition to being a woman)

We've all got crosses to bear. But I'd rather focus on what I can do now. So, I'm picking myself up and continuing the fight. If you don't share that impulse, then you don't, but don't disparage me for having hope that, based on history, things will get better.
