Just sat down to do some paper work and opened my yahoo, this was the first article they had up. I read most of it but was just disgusted by the ignorance of some some people that I had to stop reading. Being a minority throughout my entire life, I have never faced or even heard about things like thins, it just makes me sick to be honest. Well, read it! I guess I'll finish reading it. Just thought I would share. Have a good weekend guys!

That's unbelievable!!!!

"There is a problem with both groups accepting a child from such a marriage," Bardwell said. "I think those children suffer and I won't help put them through it."

Keith Bardwell later says,

"I didn't tell this couple they couldn't get married. I just told them I wouldn't do it."

Shakes my head.

Agreed. Everyone should be able to experience the agony of matrimony.

Disgusting. It never ends.

"I let them use my bathroom."

LOL.

Total garbage!!

I read this article to my staff this morning as we started our Civil Rights Training!!!

Discrimination still does exist!!!

Riff Raff · 10-16-2009, 02:08 PM

That is disgusting. I can't believe the ignorance of some people! Growing up in the southwest, I never saw racism and denied the existence of it. That is, until I moved to South Carolina. I can't believe that these so called "Christians" discriminate based on skin color! God doesn't discriminate. Why do we?

Huh?

I see, interestingly, that they have dramatically shortened the news article in the past 5 minutes.

'He says children of such unions face troubling futures.'

Such as, being treated fairly by certain justices of the peace.

Some people just really want to go to hell when they die. He's a sure thing.

To me, that's totally believable. Unacceptable, illegal, inhuman, ignorant, whatever, but believable. As a white who grew up in The South and who can remember "colored" bathrooms, fountains, movie balconies, etc., I may be shocked but am in the least surprised.

Blueface · 10-16-2009, 05:17 PM

That guy is gone soon enough.
He has no right ruling on an issue ruled already by the Constitution.

On the lighter side, how dare he not allow this poor guy to be miserable in marriage.

mosesbotbol · 10-17-2009, 09:45 AM

She looks pretty cute too; good for him! Why should anyone care who one has a civil union with? The State is not a church. One more blow to Jindal as a potential presidential candidate. At least he was smart enough to take quick and decisive action.

My question is how long has this guy been denying marriages and why didn't the Jindal et al take steps to correct this years ago? I have hard time believing this is a first time event with this guy.

If Jindal has any chance at winning the GOP, he has to get his house in order now.

To me racial issues, religion and politics should be discussed on another more appropriate site.

10-17-2009, 09:59 AM

Bummer.

floydpink · 10-17-2009, 10:04 AM

I never knew the meaning of happiness until I got married.

By then it was too late.
