Registered Roommates

They're calling it marriage, but it's not recognized in the state of Tennessee. Instead of trying to force others to accept their alternative lifestyle. If they want to be counted as man and wife. They should just go where others agree with them. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

I don't really care about them being among the first homosexuals to claim to be married. Marriage is between one man and one woman, regardless of what state says it's legal. Why not do a feature story on the mother who had six children and still found a husband? Now that would be something I would like to read. The Commercial Appeal for some reason didn't allow readers to comment on their feature story. Which is something that isn't usually done, but I know why they did it this time. A large percentage of their readers have a distaste for stories such as this. It is sometimes harshly reflected in their comments. Homosexuals are powerful and have friends in high places. I think they should remain as they always have. In my opinion this just makes them registered roommates.
