This whole issue is crap. These are the same kind of people who wanted to make burning the flag illegal by constitutional ammendment. I'd like to ask these people how not having such an ammendment is causing such great damage to our country that an ammendment is required. All this could affect are...what? inheritance, alimony, child custody, medical and financial responsibility for each other? How are those things being harmed now by the fact that they aren't necessarily denied to everyone in the nation who has a nonstandard living arrangement? -- Matt
