Interesting Facebook conversation...

Baby steps, African Americans didn't go from slavery to CEOs overnight, women didn't go from no rights to all the rights they have now overnight. So if the conservative fundamental idiots will let us have civil unions but not marriages, take it. It's a step in the right direction and that's better than refusing it because it isn't everything we want.

Would you rather be chained flat against the wall or given a 10 foot rope so you could at least lay down, take a leak and sit or stand as you chose? Sure you'd WANT complete freedom but, you wouldn't refuse the rope if being chained to the wall was the only other option you could get for today.

This.
