Proposition Q

now that i've had some thinkin' time, i have realized the error in my ways. the people who fought to pass a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage-- the people who actually want to change our state's governing document so that it discriminates against people based on biological differences-- are not ridiculous bastards. they really aren't. in fact, i've done much soul searching and realized they are absolutely correct:

marriage is sacred, and marriage needs to be defended.

in the spirit of that strong desire to keep marriage sacred-- because this is not about discrimination, after all-- i will be busting my tail to get proposition Q on the next ballot. prop Q will be the ultimate tool to keep marriage holy by making divorce illegal. marriage is a sacred union. it is a bond between two people-- oh, sorry, a man and a woman-- that must span their entire lives. how can marriage be sacred if people are allowed to break this bond whenever something goes wrong? how can marriage be considered a holy institution if the vows a man and a woman make before god can be nullified in a court of law because one of them got bored?

i know that no one who voted to pass proposition 8 has ever been divorced. that would be immoral! but there are heathens out there who think nothing of defiling marriage. proposition Q is the answer. ban divorce between a man and a woman. keep family values intact.
