23. Fine then

don't vote or vote for someone else so when the insane party of no comes into major offices such as the presidency and they enact a federal law overturning all gay marriages and civil unions please be the last person who will cry me a river - OK

Civil rights for blacks was not voted on by the American people because we all know it would have lost big time. The federal government voted for civil rights for blacks. Same here, many people are afraid of gays because of what many religions are teaching.
