By far most of the comments on the blog follow along the lines of "Marriage is just a piece of paper!"
When exactly did that happen in our society? And do you guys think the three brides I saw this weekend know that their entire celebration is just for "a piece of paper"?
So is a driver's license, an insurance card, a contract, a deed.
If marriage is 'just a piece of paper,' it's because the rights and privileges of the institution have been being pulled away for years now.
This town is full of Cr-p!
Lawsuit city if were me.
How, exactly, is this the government's business? Don't they have more important things to be worrying about?

My wife and I thumbed our nose at just such a law before we were married.
I wouldn't want to live next door to an alcoholic who abuses his family; I wouldn't want to live next door to a child predator, I wouldn't want to live next door to a queer couple, I wouldn't want to live next door to a thief, and I wouldn't want to live next door to a houseful of perverts.
Good for the Town of Black Jack!!!!
