We throw our country’s christian principles and morality in the trash can for 130,000 deviates? America, Wake TFU!
It won’t be ‘never’.
They will use the ‘Equal Protection’ clause to demand courts do something about the ‘discrimination’..............
130,000 compared to what? 300+ million?
I had public school new math so I can’t even fathom what percent that would be but I’m betting kinda miniscule.
Austin is a mecca for gay marriages.
I’ve seen tons of ‘bush bumpers’ along with ‘pickle chuggers’ so called marriages.

They got that covered...
