Despite what you may think, my post is not a gay marriage post, it's a "let's try and understand the other side of the political spectrum" post.
I think your post, and Stranglove's, are highly illustrative of the exact thing I was trying to demonstrate to young Skywalker (Great Danton). I hope GD does read some of the Loving stuff.

Hecklers, I applaud your persistent patience. I must admit, lately the "conservatives" have been getting on my nerves and I have been taking more of an "over my knee" approach with them rather than trying to explain things to them.
