"Are you daft" was a question, albeit rhetorical; it is becoming painfully obvious you ARE.

Now YOU want to move the goalpost by saying that my explaining why this law IS different is somehow just to make me feel better? WTF, man? I simply pointed out that there IS a difference spelled out in this law! You want to belittle it, but would you feel it's okay for the court to allot MORE RESOURCES to investigating crimes against red-haired gay men than blond gay men? Why not? Does that sound arbitrary and unfair to you? Gosh, to me too!

Despite your paranoia, I didn't call anyone names, but I'm feeling like it about now. You seem to be filled with hate, and maybe you have a reason to be. But you are utterly clueless, it seems, about what I'm saying. You don't realize what a friend you have in me. As I stated, in case you missed the point of it, I am an artist (in a big metro area, no less!) with a background in women's fashion. I'm not entirely straight myself. I'm 100% behind the demand for equal rights for all, including the elimination of the phony "marriage" issue for gay men and women; marriage is a church issue, not a state issue, and all citizens should be allowed to marry anyone they want to marry ('cept maybe their own brother or sister, I suppose), in the eyes of their church. If they're not religious, then they should be able to sign up at the courthouse like everyone else and get married.

You are trying your damnedest to make me out to be your enemy, but you're sorely mistaken.

I just don't like foisting yet more unworkable laws onto a system that refuses to bother to enforce the laws already on the books.

Laws which, btw, protect each of us, regardless of our sexuality.
