[re: DC marriage equality law and the District's 3 day waiting period after issuing a license:]
Three day waiting period for a gay marriage. Five day waiting period for the gun so you can shoot yourself when you realize you married a dude.

1)if this is supposed to be a joke, it would only work if we're talking gay marriage in Vegas, which is the only place in the world i know of where people marry accidentally
2)gettes clearly doesn't know about this awesome thing called divorce; or annulment.
3)what an idiot.
Okay, it kinda made me laugh a little, too, but still....Uh, gettes, the whole point is that a guy who marries a dude WANTS it that way.
Yeah, that happens all the time.
Well, despite my above sarcasm, it could happen in Las Vegas.
This is more likely to happen in the fundie world where the dirty ebil nasty body parts have to stay hidden under lock and key until after you're stuck with someone for life.
In the real world where we're allowed to get to know our life partners, both physically and emotionally, most people already know and love the person their standing next to at the alter.
"That's the sort of detail that's really, really hard to miss."
Not really. Billy Tipton had everybody fooled for decades.
"Five day waiting period for the gun so you can shoot yourself when you realize you married a dude."
Or five days so that nutjobs like yourself can't buy a guy and crash the ceremony. It might also make for some interesting statistics to see just how many of your ignorant brethren go out and buy guns as the number of gay weddings increases. Sort of a handy-dandy watch list if you ask me.
Here in Sweden you need to be a licensed hunter to have a gun, which you must keep locked up, unloaded, in a gun-cabinet.
But, as most of us live with our significant other a few years before we marry*, we don't need that particular way out of a marriage.
* IF we marry at all, you can live Happily Ever After without a marriage certificate, you know.
Well the only way I could see someone "accidentally marrying a dude" is if you don't believe in sex before marriage and did it three days after you met because you were horny.
Us sinners would of figured it out a long time before the wedding day.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
