Same Sex Couples Sue State

I'm sure by now many of you have heard that 6 couples have sued the state because of the Governors veto of House Bill 444. I think people are getting all riled up over nothing. (Click Here to read the article)

First of all the reason many of us opposed HB444, was because it was same sex marriage under the guise of granting the same benefits to homosexual couples as married couples.

My position is simply this, we already have laws on the books granting rights to same sex couples. These laws are known as reciprocal benefits laws, that if there is anything lacking in them, they can easily be changed to accommodate those issues. Many of us against same sex marriage believe that HB444 was an attack on the institution of marriage that has been defined as a union between one man and one women.

America is the land of the free, and freedom is for all of its citizens. The solution is not to sue the government and waste the courts time. The solution is to fix the law that is already in place and address the issues where that may be lacking.

Don't mess with marriage!!
