Inside The Next Big Battle For Gay Rights
and BOOM!
there you have it.
Stuff like this is the beginning to the end of discrimination and denying equal rights.
Me and many others called it when DOMA fell and then again when IRS granted equal rights no matter the state couples reside.
National equal rights for gays is coming and many cases (hopefully just a few SSCs and one SCOTUS) like these are going to make it happen. These types or gross discrimination and equality violations along with state bannings are going to HELP establish equal rights for gays.
In my opinion there's nothing right about what Texas is doing to these people and legally other similar cases have ruled its wrong also.
Like i was saying, when DOMA fell me and others said thats the first step because cases like these and 1000s of others are going to establish equal rights.
If a gay married couple lives in taxes and one of them is in the hospital does the other not get spousal visitation rights or spousal say in healthcare?
Can one of them cheat and its ok?
What if one dies, does texas take the stuff in the dead spouses name?
Can one spouse be FORCED to testify against the other since texas doesnt see their marriage?
etc etc etc etc and a 100 more examples that involve state, and local policies.
There will be cases like these springing up more and more and they will have to be dealt with. Its great because its going to be poetic justice, all these discrimination and laws banning equal rights for gays are going to be the kindling for the fire to burn the whole bigoted and or discrimination wall down.
Equal rights is going to get the last laugh!
Bigotry and discrimination are already against the ropes, their wobbled, their stunned!
Soon they will catch a left jab of equal rights and a right hook of justice, knocking their teeth out and sending them to the canvas down for the count!!!!
