The research triangle will probably suffer. Few want to raise their kids in a social nest of bigots and haters.

NC already had outlawed gay marriage. That existed before this vote. But now, with this constitutional amendment passed (it's not passed yet, it was a referendum), the fear is the amendment removes current legal protections from all unmarried couples, including heterosexuals. Things like right to visit in hospital, orders of protection against domestic violence, etc.

As 'Zig pointed out, this is entirely about a religious cult forcing their theocratic beliefs on an entire state. It's exactly the "Sharia Law" that these very same theocratic loons fear.
