While Iowa House Votes for Discrimination, a Young Man Speaks About Family
Yesterday in Iowa, the Republican controlled House passed a resolution to start the process to amend that state's constitution to completely wipe out all legal recognition of same sex relationships, not just marriage. The backers of this religious based bigotry argue that only a heterosexual couple can properly raise children (they apparently think single parents should be kicked to the curb too based on this argument). One young Iowan, Zach Wahls, eloquently took exception to this lie as shown in the video above. The irony is that with so many abusive and dysfunctional heterosexual headed families, the enemies of gay marriage are seemly afraid that gays might be better able to make marriage work. My youngest daughter recently remarked that the boyfriend and I have a better relationship that straight couples she knows.
