I've never understood the propaganda that claims that gay marriage is a threat to families, or a threat to the stability of straight marriages. If the two women or the two guys next door get married, I can't imagine how that could be a threat to my wife and me. That just doesn't make sense to me at all, but yet that thinking was the root of the success of the recent Proposition 8 campaign that outlawed gay marriage in Calfornia.

I've always thought California would be the first state to make gay marriage legal. Instead, it was one of the first to outlaw gay marriage by statewide vote.
