The New York State Bar Association backs same-sex marriage - Lez Get Real

Lez Get Real has just learned that delegates for the New York State Bar Association meeting in Cooperstown today, have adopted a resolution asking New York state legislators to give full marriage rights to same-sex couples, reversing their previous position on same-se marriage saying that New York could take other actions to guarantee those rights, such as recognizing domestic partnerships or civil unions.

I think the only sitution more frustrating than New York is the crap happening in New Jersey. Maybe they'll both get their sh!t together soon.

I think the Bar supporting this is great..... But are they only supporting it because divorce attorneys obtain more money because failed, gay marriages?

I'm disgusted with my state senators. I've sent emails to every undecided/undeclared/no senator in NY and have received no response. This can and will completely influence their re-election status if this is denied. NY does not want to be a red state or a blue state that holds other blue states back.

In such a legalistic society such as ours, this has to be a positive move. The lawyers see the writing on the wall and want to be there "for us," when we need to hire someone to represent us. they are such a selfless group.

Where there is marriage, there will be divorce. The lawyers thrive on such dislocations. Bless their tight-fisted little hearts, they have to make money off somebody, no?

How sick and disgusting. But it doesn't surprise me. Blood-sucking lawyers. Why all of a sudden flag waving for the f-gs? New president have a skeleton in his closet? Immorality and lies for money. Oh yeah, honest lawyers LOLOL
