From the CBS story,
he lead plaintiffs, Chicago Police Detective Tanya Lazaro and software analyst Liz Matos, believe the civil unions that became legal in Illinois last year are insufficient.
“It sends a powerful message that these loving relationships are inadequate and undeserving,” said John Knight, the ACLU’s Director of LGBT and AIDS projects.

Uh, yeah, John, that would be correct.
This is the legal attack Lambda has been preparing for, for over 20 years. This is the big one. This is the one that destroys marriage and removes its solid evidence of heterosexual normality -- which is what this is all about.
Welcome to socialist realism in the world of law.
No one is attacking “love”. The government doesn’t tell anyoine and cannot tell anyone who or what we can love because love is subjective, quite literally in the eye of the beholder.
What is under attack is marriage. That’s objective and monogamy, one man married to one woman, is the natural and historical standard. The only other potential standard is polygyny - one man to many women. No other “marriages” are normal.
Homosexuals are attempting to rationalize their neurosis to be “normal” something it never can be. All the evidence to date points to homosexuality as a mental illness needing treatment not acceptance. The APA violated its charter and the medical adage to first do no harm when they removed homosexuality from the DSM. They did so based on no scientific evidence, just political action and subversion by a homosexual cadre bent on normalizing homosexuality.
Imagine yourself as a counselor and the patient stating that they love sticking things in their rectum. What’s your conclusion? Normalcy? It’s absurd on its face, yet here we are.
