ive always considered myself to be an optimist. im also optimistic that gay rights and gay marriage will persavere here in the states. the sad reality is that it will take time. i tend to believe a decade at least. the wheels of progress are slowwwww. here in massachusettes a person was not able to buy meat from your grocery store on a sunday. that only changed in 1993. let alone a grocery store was only allowed to be open from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on a sunday. a packy(package store) wasnt allowed to be open on sundays only until 3 years ago. alot of these laws are called blue laws or grandfather laws. these may seem like meaningless issues. but the point is that they are rediculous laws that serve no purpose but to old tradition of conservatives.
so gay rights and gay marriage will someday be available to us all. but again it will take time. when it comes to this topic i dont look only at the glass being 1/2 full or 1/2 empty. i see the glass as being to damned BIG your remark
