US gay couples denied a divorce
BBC News July 21, 2011
Couples in some parts of the US are becoming trapped in unhappy marriages by differing laws on same sex unions.
(Full Story)
"In life you can never be too kind or too fair; everyone you meet is carrying a heavy load. When you go through your day expressing kindness and courtesy to all you meet, you leave behind a feeling of warmth and good cheer, and you help alleviate the burdens everyone is struggling with."

Didn't I warn them about this whole marriage thing? I think I did.

I'm not upset for them. Heart
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

I saw this on TV while my dad was watching BBC America. I thought it was kind of funny. Tongue

I wouldn't think it's that big of a deal. If the government issues gays lawful marriage licenses, so that they're equal with straights, then access to divorce is also a matter of equal right to vacate the former contract.

I think this will have less hurdles to overcome than did the fight to achieve the right to marry did.

That's pretty funny, actually.
