The German parliament has rejected a proposal for same-sex marriage. Despite a lack of good arguments against marriage equality, homosexuals remain second-class citizens as homophobic moralists triumph once again.
I’m tired of it. I’m tired of people who purport to know what is right and wrong beyond those things that actually harm someone. The whole stinking essence of moralist arguments collapses onto itself.
Should Heather be allowed to marry Maria, or should John and Tom be allowed to tie the knot? Of course, because same-sex marriage doesn’t harm anyone but brings joy to two people.

To guard against similar things happening in the “Republic of the United States of America” is precisely why Benjamin Franklin and the other Founders and drafters of the Constitution, tried to inoculate it against degenerating into a democracy.
Franklin said when emerging from the Constitutional Convention, “We’ve given you a Republic if you can keep it.”
Democracies revert to mob rule, massive violations of rights, and eventually self destruct. Constitutional Republics are unlikely to do this.
If the United States government elected leaders were fulfilling their oath to uphold an preserve our Constitution and Republic, the LGBT community would unlikely be experiencing this massive violation of our civil rights.
This is the crux of the problem. And because of this, we have to wait for the next mob to take over and hope that they protect our rights. Verify what I say. You’ll find that it is correct.
