The American family
“Some say they are uncomfortable with the thought of gays and lesbians marrying. But our rights as Americans do not depend on the approval of others. Our rights depend on us being Americans.”
Fantastic essay from John Lewis with some searing common sense on the gay marriage issue. (via Atrios) Please read this and pass it on.
I can’t wait to read this article – just the small quote is enough to get me all worked up. I can’t fathom why people seriously think that they should have any say about who can and can’t get married. It’s nonsensical. Thanks for the link!
