its not marriage equality. its homosexual couples marriage.

anyway, i just wish the state would get out of marriage. its not the governments job.

 

As far as the government getting out of it – that is a separate argument. You would need to change over 15,000 Federal laws and statues – including the 5th amendment, and another whole bunch (many thousands) of state ones.  It's possible, but a whole bunch of work that would take years and be expensive.

 

Interesting. What does the fifth amendment have to do with this? Also, it wouldn't be a change of those laws, it would be a total repealment of them. No government in marriage unless there is an enforcement of a contract between two individuals. To think that there are 15,000 Federal laws on something as personal as marriage is sickening to me, especially since the Federal government should be restricted to interstatual law and not have any involvement with the individual lives of particular persons unless it involves an interstatual or international situation.
