The Law is no obstacle anymore
Andrew Olmsted supports changing the law to make homosexuals eligible for the same marriage license that heteros can get. But he strongly opposes how it's being done, worrying (as I do) that America is now becoming A Government of Men, Not of Laws:

Once upon a time, the United States was described as a nation of laws, not of men. But that was a long time ago, and it went by the boards in the 20th century as courts began deciding what was legal based on personal beliefs rather than what was written, and Congress and the President stepped aside and let the courts do as they will. So it shouldn't be too surprising that the government of San Francisco has taken the next logical step. After all, letting same sex couples marry is the right thing to do. Why should such issues as the law get in the way of doing what's right?
Folks, America is one generation at most away from true tyranny.
