You are being obtuse. I cannot marry whomever I choose either! The restraints on us are EQUAL. It isn't just my characterization, it is FACT.
Th government and the wishes of the majority are restricting them. This denys equal access to government, liberty, and the pursuit of happeness.
No. Homosexuals can marry and avail themselves of all the benefits you listed. NO LAW ANYWHERE says that if you are homosexual you are not allowed to marry. They must, however, make their choices within the law, JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.
Another twist. Homosexuals cannot marry someone the love because the government forbids it. If you love the opposite sex you can marry. You think that's okay and they have equal access and liberty. I don't.
I'm tired of you twisting and spinning and then calling me obtuse. Have the last word and declare victory.
