There's a consequence to sitting back and doing NOTHING...and that is allowing a precedent to be set without comment or hindrance.

Think Domino Theory...

There is an old saying in the Italian-American community, which translates as "tend your own garden." If San Francisco, Anaheim, Fort Lauderdale, Boston, Minneapolis and other liberal strongholds want to pass such stupid laws, whether for interspecies marriage or illegal immigrant rights, let them do so. Let's stay within our OWN communities and pass OUR OWN laws to piss off the left!!!
