Its astounding how easily people get hung up on this stuff isn't it? Gay marriage shouldn't even be an issue, it should have been nothing more then a wrinkle or hiccup in our system that needed to be addressed, fixed and put behind us. Instead this (and other needlessly complicated issues) consume the headlines, dominates the debates around elections, tie up our courts and govt offices and wastes tax payers money that could be better spent elsewhere. Don't get me wrong, this is an important issue that needs to be resolved, its just amazing how hard it is to find a resolution over what should amount to simply correcting the system to afford everyone the same rights (a value we supposedly hold very dear) so we can all move on to other pressing issues.
I'm sick of it, if there is one thing that will drive me out of the US for another country its our tendency to get so hung up on stuff like this and debate it endlessly while we spend decades and god knows how many millions of dollars trying to resolve it. This SHOULD be a lot simpler and US citizens shouldn't have to fight this hard for the most basic of equalities.
Damn...
...wheres that venting thread when I need it.
