Slam Dunk

The Onion on what it will take to pass marriage equality in all fifty states. This reminds me of the Simpsons episode where John Waters saves Homer, Moe, and Barney from a pack of mad reindeer. When Moe and Barney lament that they have been rescued by a "sissy," Homer finally sticks up for Waters. As Waters sums it up: "Well, Homer, I won your respect, and all I had to do was save your life. Now, if every gay man could just do the same, you'd be set."

Let's hope it take less than that for our fellow citizens to recognize that we are entitled to equal treatment under the law.
