In Rhode Island: "Gay Marriage" bill passes in House, but stalls in Senate.

On Thursday, Jan. 24, the Rhode Island House of Representatives passed the "gay marriage" bill (H5015) by a 51-19 vote, two days after the bill was passed by the House Judiciary Committee. The move was not unexpected, given that the Speaker of the House, Gordon Fox, a Democrat, is openly homosexual and has been a champion of this bill. But the bill now moves to the Senate, where its fate is very uncertain.

The Rhode Island Senate has not been as monolithic in its support for this bill as the House. The Senate President is on record as opposing it, and key members of the Senate Judiciary have become very skeptical of the bill. And the Senate has clearly taken note of the flood of outrage from pro-family Christians around the state. There's a strong sense that the bill can be stopped there.

One State House source said this week that it is unlikely that the Senate would take it up before April, if at all! The source said:

"The leaves will be on the trees before we address this. We have more important things to deal with."

We are also getting the sense that Senators are becoming angry and upset at the abuse, often graphic and disgusting, that they receive from homosexual activists when they disagree with the need for this bill, or even question it.

At this point, it looks like the pro-family side has the momentum. We'll keep you informed!

The homosexual activists will ultimately ensure there are no moderates or fence sitters. This isn't simply about gay marriage. That's just one step in the queering of America.

As we've discussed here many times, the end goal is the supression of any dissenting opinions, including the schools and media. The homosexualists might permit private discussions, but they will use all means to ostracize and penalize anyone who dares speak a dissenting word in public.

The homosexualists see this as a civil rights issue. Same sex attraction is not the same thing as skin color, but they don't see it that way. Therefore, they will use the same techniques that were used in the civil rights era. Homosexuals will be a protected class, subject to preferential treatment and protection like other minorities. Dissenters will see their businesses destroyed and/or their views proscribed, i.e. speak up and lose one's job or be sued.

That's the real end game here.

Gay Marriage = Two queers sodomizing one another. Now why is that a problem?/ sarc

I've had it with these militant faggots and dykes trying to destroy the definition of marriage, and what it means to be a Boy Scout!

Show me a Faggot or a Dyke, and I’ll show you a person who is screwed up in the head with regards to a bad relationship with one or both of their parents. These people know deep in their hearts that two men sodomizing one another is not normal, but is the most shameful and sick act a human can commit.
