[QUOTE=Elecbullet;45216586]The phrase "human right" is never used by anyone without it being amplified by the prefix "basic"[/QUOTE] yeah, shit like food and water and being able to walk down the street without being murdered are basic human rights. marriage is a societal concept and isn't really a basic human right, perhaps arguably not even a human right.
[QUOTE=Riller;45216379]Uhhh... Ehhh... Fuck, I can't make a joke on this one. Indiana is one of those states that us Europeans entirely ignore and know nothing about.

More corn [editline]26th June 2014[/editline] I've heard reports that Jesus is out amongst the corn too from a friend who became a fundamental christian after moving there

Its like none of you understand the thousands of social and legal advantages and rights that come with marriage. I don't care about your social labeling, I want the same equality for my boyfriend and I, and many others as you get. I don't give a shit if you call it a butt-fuck buddy system. I just want to be equal.

[editline]26th June 2014[/editline] I would also love to live in a world where I can tell my family I love another man. I would love to live in a world where we don't attack or hate each other for loving other men or women. Those are nice things too, and equality like this pushes that forward.
[QUOTE=LSK;45216148]I just move to Indiana, I'm glad to see [b]a federal judge is[/b] not quite as backwards as I thought. :v:[/QUOTE] This is not "Indiana legalizing gay marriage", this is "A federal judge forced Indiana to legalize gay marriage until the inevitable appeal and injunction that stops marriages again". Indiana didn't suddenly become less backwards. We're just as bigoted as ever. Real progress would be the legislature passing a bill to legalize it, or the Governor ordering the appeal dropped. But neither one of those things will happen, because the state government is entirely dominated by Republicans.

I don't see it going anywhere.
Marriage is listed under the [url=http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/]UN's declaration of human rights.[/url] Keeping folks from being married also denies them a whole slew of benefits and isn't cool at all yo.

No one here disagrees with you and if they do they're quickly shouted down for being ignorant.

I don't see it going anywhere.[/QUOTE] Roe v. Wade was 40 years ago and Republicans are still fighting harder than ever to make de facto abortion bans happen in the states. They aren't going to just give up on denying marriage rights to gay people because a court says so. They will give up when we vote them all out and make it clear that opposing marriage equality disqualifies you from holding office. Not before.
My county clerk is refusing to hand out the new licenses because of her religious beliefs and because she hasn't been ordered to give them out by the state. [url]http://www.washtimesherald.com/local/x1927823444/Clerk-decides-not-to-issue-same-sex-marriage-licenses?zc_p=0[/url]
Just make it federal law already?
Here's a list of the counties that are and are not giving them out. [url]http://wthitv.com/2014/06/26/daviess-county-not-issuing-marriage-licenses-for-same-sex-couples/[/url]

[QUOTE=Xieneus;45216151]It's only a matter of time before it spreads into the core of the country.[/QUOTE] I imagine the more Bible belted states would rather reform the Confederacy and try for another Civil War, than allow same sex marriage. Though I could just be sounding silly here.

My girlfriend works in a bar and she gets all that shit and more from heterosexual guys hundreds of times a day.

Rational folks here call Indiana the "Northern Southern State" because it badly tried to emulate the south. The only urban areas are around the colleges, around Indianapolis, and up here by Chicago. Speaking of which, we had a gay couple marry here in Michigan City already!

Applying for a marriage license =/= submitting a relationship for your bigoted fucking religious approval. Your job, as county clerk, is to issue marriage licenses to people who are legally entitled to that. If you have a moral objection to [I]doing your job[/I], then you should step down from your job [I]immediately.[/I]
