Defence of Marriage Week



Yes, it's Defence of Marriage Week this week, as declared by our own Puppet-Unelect as directed by the Occupation Government. The Shrub didn't acknowledge LGBT History Month and now he's openly dancing to the tune of "homosexuals are a threat".

I'm not a very clever commentator. I haven't the political savvy to say smart, understanding things about the Occupation Government. They are looking to alienate every queer emily & henry and every reasonable-minded citizen.

Defence of Marriage Week? Is that a joke? Seriously, is it a joke? Let's declare a week to protect heterosexuality? What kind of political grandstanding is this? I mean, come on! Who in the United States gives a rat's ass about hetero marriage? Really, now: you don't think that this is honestly what it is about, do you? "I know," says Occupation Loyalist, "I've got the perfect thing here: the idea what will make the people think really hard, will hit them right where it matters most. Let's talk about the importance of heterosexual marriage!"

Yeah, right. Who cares about heterosexual marriage? Only lunatics & the apocalyptic-minded think about the wider social implications of breeder legal pairings. What exactly is being defended? From whom should it be defended?

This declaration is about one thing, and it's pretty baldly obvious to whom this message is addresed:

DIE QUEERS DIE YOU PERVERTS.

See, we should get your vote because we also wish to cruci... I mean stone queahz.

It's a fucking lowbrow move. It's worthy of an administration that seized power, that rebuts the notion of rule from below in the face of Godly ordination, that covers up a classical statue of Justice because her teat is bared, that committed treason in an act of political vengeance, that approved of Israeli military assaults on Syria & that demonstrably preplanned the invasion of Iraq long before 9/11.

This country is officially going down like the Titanic. Catastrophism? Ha! Talk to me in a month. Every day seems to bring forth another dire insult to the people and to the rights of the people from the many mouths of the Occupation.
