V-Day marriages won't occur for everyone

Date published: 2/10/2005

It's almost Valentine's Day, and the news is carrying stories of love and marriage proposals among heterosexual couples.

But let's not forget the large number of marginalized people who are not able to marry although they are very much in love. And these are very good people, I might add.

Why do we single out a group of people to hate? (And I think "hate" is the correct word to use.)

I am ashamed of our legislators in Richmond who have spent so much time this session trying to find more and more ways to hurt homosexual people. Why?

Shame on this state, where individual freedom is part of our heritage. But then hate is also a part of our heritage, isn't it?
