That's what the attorney representing six Kentucky gay couples said today about the state's brief defending its ban on gay marriage.

Governor Steve Beshear says that "it isn't discriminatory because it bars both gay and straight people from same-sex unions."

Wonder if we should be looking forward to some kind of absurdity olympics as the contenders beef up. All we need is a host city. :rolleyes:

"In its majestic equality, the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread." Anatole France

Lookin, while such a law might at first glance seem to have a slightly disparate impact on gays, that doesn't necessarily mean there was any intent to discriminate on the part of the Kentucky legislature.

I "like" this, but reserve my right to retract it at any time and for any reason.
