However, I still think that TV is pushing gaydom down the throats of viewers. Remember, only about 3% of the population is GLBT. |

...sad about The Supreme's ruling to let gay marriages in five states stand. William J. Howell, the Republican speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates, said in a statement that he was disappointed by the court’s ruling, and he criticized Mark Herring, the state’s Democratic attorney general, for refusing to defend the state’s ban on marriage, adopted in a constitutional amendment in 2006. “I am a strong supporter of traditional marriage. There are many Virginians who agree with me and some who do not,” Mr. Howell said. “Regardless of how one feels about marriage, we should all agree that Virginians deserve to have their voices heard and votes vigorously defended in court. That did not happen in this case.” Mr. Herring waved aside the criticism during an impromptu news conference on the steps of the Arlington courthouse. Flanked by gay members of the Arlington county board and the State Legislature, Mr. Herring hailed the court’s ruling. In an interview after the news conference, Mr. Herring said Virginia had long been on what he considered to be the wrong side of history, citing the civil rights cases of Brown vs. Board of Education and the 1996 case that struck down the male-only admissions policy at the Virginia Military Institute. “I was determined to make sure that the injustices of Virginia’s position in those past cases were not repeated again,” Mr. Herring said. (Indeed, Virginia has a long and sordid history of denying civil rights to its citizens. Herring did not mention Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1 (1967), was a landmark civil rights decision of the United States Supreme Court which invalidated laws prohibiting interracial marriage. From Wiki: The case was brought by Mildred Loving, a black woman, and Richard Loving, a white man, who had been sentenced to a year in prison in Virginia for marrying each other. Their marriage violated the Virginia's anti-miscegenation statute, the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which prohibited marriage between people classified as "white" and people classified as "colored". The Supreme Court's unanimous decision held this prohibition was unconstitutional, overturning Pace v. Alabama (1883) and ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States. The decision was followed by an increase in interracial marriages in the U.S., and is remembered annually on Loving Day, June 12. It has been the subject of two movies as well as songs. Beginning in 2013, it was cited as precedent in U.S. federal court decisions holding restrictions on same-sex marriage in the United States unconstitutional. Have a nice day, Speaker Howell.) I think the AG is totally wrong. Should be recalled or fired. Wither you are for or against same sex marriage, the AG's job is to represent the peoples wishes. Would be like you hired an attorney in a tort case, and they decided you should not win, and did everything to cause you to lose. Same thing happened in California. AG decide not to defend a law passed by a majority of the people. Supremes could still rule the same way, but the people of the state deserve decent representation. |
