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.

I doubt that they are true constitutional ammendments. What you are probably referring to are state laws passed by state assemblies. These require 51% for passage where as constitutional ammendments typically require super majorities.
