I am a consenting adult, my WIFE to be in a consenting adult.... hopefully the courts will see it. We are two consenting adults that wish to be legally joined.
If only the evolution of the human spirit toward love and respect for all could keep pace with the amazing advances in technology we see. We put men on the moon, transplant artificial hearts, Skype a video call all the way across the globe, and fit a mind-boggling amount of data into an iPod the size of a book of matches, and yet, we still can't get a lot of people to pull their heads out of their asses. (Their misinterpreted Bibles seem to be lodged up there, blocking the way for extraction.)
Hey Roy - who was that on percussion? And if you were in the neighborhood last month, why didn't Anne and I get an invite to back you up with harmony vocals and keyboard? ;)
@amazonhippie Tripoding without a permit is a serious issue. Terrorists are constantly setting up elaborate cameras to sing wacky songs in front of government buildings.
With your voice and wisdom one would think think that you should run for public office..... don't ever do it, you and others others like yourself are need with us. Don't ever stop
Great mini doc.!! If even half of the politicians in this country had your social conscience, this world would be a much better place.... Is that Sam on percussion?
I wish you all the best luck and a new milestone in the history of civil rights. But ain't it sad that in 2010 courts have to make that decission over the heads of the hipocrites, forcing it down their throats?
my wife is white and Im obviously black, I love my wife more than anyone in this world!!!! no one has the authority to take that away. free love for all black white gay hetero and everyone else.
Lol, did you watch the Daily Show the other day, where this black couple were among the prop 8 supporters protesting the gay marriage thing? It was funny as hell; she said how being black and a woman there was a time she couldn't vote and it was a testament to democracy and equality that now she had the power to vote against this despicable and sacrilegious movement to give equal rights to gays, without a clue at how ironic her statement was.
There was a time protestants couldn't marry, either.
I probably would have. Most cops are pretty decent and accommodating, at least around here. He might have said yes. He was just enforcing a regulation, probably had nothing against the act itself.

I'm a product of an interracial marriage so I'm all for the freedom to love who you want no matter race or sexual orientation but I gotta say that Richard Loving is one creepy looking dude, I wouldn't be suprised to see him in a clan meeting. It could just be the time period and the film used but that guy is scary.
