the arc of justice might be getting a lot shorter

six georgians have filed a class-action suit in federal court against georgia's goddamned gay-marriage ban, a hateful bit of mendacity ginned up to win the republicans elections in 2004 --- nothing ever made me so angry, or so sad, since it exposed all the hate and fear among so many of my own family and friends, and it has taken a real effort not to be totally bitter

and, no, i won't accept cherry-picked biblical injunctions on this issue anymore than i accept the heritage-not-hate argument from those who would glorify a bunch of murderous, slave-holding, traitors --- one must maintain one's standards

as always, georgia will be dragged forward kicking and screaming
