I can understand where you are coming from but this is a public building supported by tax dollars and the last time I checked gay people do pay taxes. If they don't want them there then don't take their tax dollars.

Interesting that you say that, and point well taken.

I am unclear whether gay marriage/civil unions are legal in the state of Mississippi. The official in his reply said:

“Based on my personal and religious beliefs, I strongly object to this, but I have no alternative, due to this advice, but to allow the processing of this permit to move forward,” wrote Hyde-Smith.

“However, if finalized, I will immediately begin working with other elected officials and the entire legislature to request clear and straightforward definitions about what activities can take place on the property owned by the State of Mississippi,” she added, “I am hopeful that this matter can be put forth immediately when the Legislature convenes in January.”

That would be a small price to pay. There are a lot -- a lot -- fewer of them than it would seem.

Addendum: Mississippi currently does not legally define either civil unions or domestic partnerships. So to hold one in a public building is dubious.

Then by your logic, that museum should welcome the Klan or the Nazi Party or the local NAMBLA chapter - after all, I’m sure that they pay taxes.

Not a question of “not wanting them there,” as you certainly know. It’s a question of not wanting an ILLEGAL ceremony to take place under state auspices.

mmmmm, you are aware that they cannot marry in the state of MS and that this is a sham in order to gain attention to their sick agenda.

We don’t base rights on fecal matter sex or strap on sex and it is high time for them to get that into their perverted sick heads and those who say the usual ignorant comment like”well I know a couple and they’re nice” are the idiots which the homostapo rely on
