LOL, I agree! Good job Kenney!
This guy actually gets it!
However, he is in Canada. Who will be getting the rope for the political lynching?

And the same applies to all people, not just homosexuals. That equal rights thing can be a burden for people who consider themselves special.
Laughing aside, he is making a valid legal point. The gay marriage lobby has painted the issue as one of discrimination, and it's not. The 'sexual preference' angle has been used to muddy the waters. Gays have the exact same rights as straight people.
Either can marry (just one person at a time) but neither can marry a person of the opposite sex. Why would 'same sex' hetros want to get married, if they don't intend to have sex with each other? Lots of potential reasons -- inheritance --- financial manipulation --- protection from prosecution --- rights to naturalization/immigration.
I'd expect if same-sex marriage ever became widely legal, we would see many times more "straight" people than gays getting hitched. It will make marriage a pure joke. Polygamists can make the same distorted discrimination argument as gays, and they in fact have significant historical, social and religious president on their side Gay marriage has absolutely zero president in any social, religious or cultural tradition. This thing has been invented out of whole cloth in the last decade or so.
LOL!!
Nice to see someone making sense. Congratulations Kenney!
