Gay Stupidity Now Equal To Heterosexual Stupidity

I have no problem with gay people, but if they're dumb enough to fight for the right to get married, then to be truly fair they should get to experience the joy of divorce, too. "Stupid is as stupid does".

Iowa Lesbian Divorce
 
 Des Moines, December 12, 2003-  A judge's divorce decree for two women has sparked a legal challenge that could help decide whether some states can bar same-sex unions while others permit it.  

Gay rights activists say the divorce between 31-year-old Kimberly J. Brown and 26-year-old Jennifer S. Perez does not open the door to recognition of same-sex relationships. But a conservative group says it will ask the Iowa Supreme Court to overturn the decree.

   Chuck Hurley, president of the Iowa Family Policy Center, says his group believes the judge exceeded his authority.   Hurley and other conservatives fear the judge's decree, which refers to the union as a marriage, is the first step in legitimizing unions allowed in a handful of states but not permitted under an Iowa law passed in 1997.

   Brown and Perez, both of Sioux City, went to Vermont in March 2002 to take advantage of that state's civil union laws.   Their divorce was granted November 14th in Woodbury County District Court.
