Yeah.... but the response from these nutjobs is that there is already equality- any gay person can get married; he or she just has to marry someone of the opposite sex.
I agree with you- the will of the majority should not be used to supersede the rights of a minority, but then I'm not on the side of those who wail about so-called "activist judges." (What does that even mean, besides, "a judge who makes a decision I personally disagree with?")
