Ultimately, I think that is why Americans will eventually be ok with same-sex marriage---because we instinctively believe in fair-play and don't want mean-spirited people to control our lives.

Do you think it's appropriate for queer men (of the "WE'RE QUEER, WE'RE *HERE*!" fame) to french-kiss in front of children in public, Ernie?
Irrelevant to our discussion. We don't grant rights based upon what a small number of people MIGHT or MIGHT NOT do in public.
Anybody can find examples of inappropriate behavior and then use that example to DENY rights or equal protection of the law. Apparently, you are a fair-weather believer in equal protection of law, i.e. you are only interested in granting rights to people who think and behave like you do!
