    In November, the state of Nevada will be faced with Question #2 which involves this state's version of the Defense of Marriage act (DoM pronounced: Dum). In 2000, voters here approved of the Dum act. Although support for the Dum act has been waning, it's likely to pass a second time this year, making it into the Nevada state constitution, even though the Nevada constitution ALREADY discriminates against gay marriages, both here and out-of-state. This Dum act is redundant and unnecessary!

    Really not looking forward to having my legal status as Second-class Citizen in this country being reaffirmed yet again...

      I demand the right to marry my dog! We are the perfect couple and I want him to receive my veterans benefits and all the other benefits of being married.

          Why can't a man have 3 or 4 wives
          A Saudi Prince has 14 wives.

              1) Because they're genetically related; can cause serious problems for any offspring. Just look in the backwaters of the Deep South states...

              2) Because of Judeo-Christian-Islamic et al morality issues.

              3) Because we're different, incompatible species. A dog is hardly a consenting adult. Same goes for horses and other non-Human animals.

                  What if they promise to use condoms?

                      Drose, Islam is quite different when it comes to how many wives a man can have. Look at the Saudi Fundie regime...

                        Your dog is not a citizen. Try again.

                          Lincoln, listen carefully...

                          DOGS AREN'T HUMANS!!!

                          They don't give consent, they don't talk, they don't have monogomous relationships, they don't mate with Humans, they don't wear condoms, they don't get married.

                          They're dogs. Not Humans.

                          Contemplate on that truth...

                            I'm just bored. You all can get married if you want. I guess that me and my dog will just have to be second class citizens and learn to enjoy it.

                              Islam says you can have a maximum of four wives, but you can have consorts/concubines as well. They don't count against the limit.

                                Lincoln, a gay person is a human being. A dog is not.
