Hopefully the idea goes NOWHERE. I don't care and I don't want to spend the summer arguing about homosexuals.

It's going to go somewhere--and probably pretty quickly, too. 37 states already have similar amendments on the books--that's one fewer than needed to ratify a Constitutional Amendment.
You don't have to be part of the argument if you don't want to. You won't be missed.

You are going to: It is upon this issue that the country will see its most serious division since the Civil War.
There's even a natural geographic break-line developing. This is going to get really nasty, and for more than just a summer. The court felt they were letting off steam but the law of unintended consequences has trumped them. They've built it to a fever point, amongst a population that feels they've been shafted too many times already (and I'm not talking about the gays).
It is upon such basic human "conditions" that great breaks develop, and great nations crumble. This could be such a fracture point.
