Duh!: It's great to live in the only state in the nation that understands the importance and imparative that a civilized nation allow all people to marry. (Well, not great that we are the only state-- great that I live in this state.) I am so pleased that the Mass legislature voted to continue to allow same sex couples to marry. In this article they state, "One letter came from an 82-year-old woman who worried that one of her young grandchildren might grow up to be gay and might not be able to marry the person he loved." and "People's ability to be happy is fundamental," he said. "To pass judgment on that, in the end, I found hard to do."
