In the wake of another Michigan Pride Festival, a chance to celebrate and educate people about Michigan’s gay population, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that some have begun talking about overturning the ban on same-sex marriages voters passed in the state in 2004. en-us Gryphon 2.2.3b-tsn (woodward)/Foundry5 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 02:22:20 -0400 webmaster@statenews.com http://statenews.com./index.php/comment/view/40830 I threw up after reading this.

What it does do, is deny same-sex couples equal protection of the laws. YOU LOST: yeah, civil unions, separate but equal institutions right? oh wait, that principle was rejected 55 years ago… Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:39:39 -0400 http://statenews.com./index.php/comment/view/40847 http://statenews.com./index.php/comment/view/40873 “YOU LOST,” as it turns out, Elton John does not speak for the entire GLBT community.
