The laws dictating this are the same ones that would punish them if they refused to allow interracial couples to be married on their land.



I'm no supporter (or opponent) of gay marriage, but this is correct.

I disagree here.

As someone in an interracial marriage, if someone had had an issue with the locale my wife and I had chosen for our wedding, we would have just flipped 'em off and found a different spot we liked.

Suing takes the focus off the marriage and makes it about making a statement. Justified or no, the fact that this couple is willing to go this route and allow something else to take precedent over what is supposed to be their day of wedded bliss does indeed take it into the "agenda" realm, in my book.

I'd be willing to bet this is what most non-militant gay people do as well.

I think the couple in question are idiots myself.
