We as a society have no right to discriminate in marriage

When people say that gay marriage is a slippery slop that will lead to polygamy and other forms of marriage the gay rights people say "thats just silly" and that no such thing is going to happen. They also continually cite the "equal protection" clause of the Constitution and that gays who want to marry shouldn't be descriminated against.

But wouldnt denying polygamists the right to marry multiple partners violate their equal protection, civil rights, and be a form of discrimination?

For the gay marriage crowd to be honest and consistent, they would have to say yes and campaign for polygamists rights too.

With all the thousands of "marriages" that have taken place in SF, I have been very disappointed that no polygamists have attempted to get a license and married. I would like several to try, and if denied the license to protest loudly and publicly.

All fetish's are waiting in the wings. Litigation is expensive. Once the homosexuals get ALL the legal doors open, they'll be moving in.
