The audience cheering loudly indicates that many people either are in favor of homosexual marriage, or accept it as a fait accomplished, and thought it was a clever line to insert into the performance.

public opinion polls suggest that we have reached a tipping point on acceptance of homosexual marriage.

It's apparent the homos will have their way on this.

Out best hope is to ensure it's decided on a state by state basis, saving a few states rather than losing the entire nation.

That said, I don't believe this issues will survive a USSC decision. They are likely to rule the 14th Amendment dictates homo marriage wherever state sponsored and recognized marriage exists.

It won't be long.

We should all be asking ourselves: How does this harm me and mine? How do I protect me and mine?

I disagree. It only seems popular because the virus breeders and their psychophants are yelling the loudest.

You are absolutely right. FWIW, when I saw the show on Broadway a decade ago, the line was "in a thousand years, this will still be controversial." Can't imagine that original line being included today.

We keep relying on the "30 to 4" record (or whatever the first number is) without acknowledging that those 4 losses are the most recent, and the trend is going in decidedly the wrong direction.

Look at California. In 2000 the people overwhelmingly voted against it. In 2008 they voted against it, but by a much slimmer margin. And nobody seriously suggests that a ban would possibly pass today. Those same voters have completely flipped on the issue.

Even in reliably red states, opposition has dropped dramatically. All those bans approved ten years ago would be much shakier today. Our old arguments are failing.
