If your state has a license to discriminate law and you intend to make full use of it, state Rep. Emily Virgin of Oklahoma wants you to own it. She is proposing an amendment to her state's bill to require placing a prominent notice that you intend to discriminate. That way you can save the rest of us a lot of hassle of not walking through the door. Commenters like the idea – as a temporary measure until the license to discriminate laws can be declared unconstitutional.
A new poll says 59% of voters support same-sex marriage. This is an all-time high and nearly double the 30% support of 2004. National attitudes towards gay marriage are changing faster than they did for such things as women's rights and interracial marriage. Go here for a chart that shows the progress.
I posted a brief note in my brother blog about two United Methodist pastors who performed same-sex marriages in Virginia.
