stfuconservatives: icantbelieveitsalawblog: Arguments against marriage equality are pretty familiar after all. Coming off of that last post about how abortion can’t be compared to slavery: this comic, on the other hand, is an OK way to point out a parallel between a past race-based issue and a not-race-related present issue. Just a few decades ago, our country wouldn’t let two consenting adults get married because their skin color was different; now they won’t let two consenting adults get married because their gender ISN’T different. Those two scenarios are pretty similar. But comparing terminating a pregnancy to slavery? Not similar. At all. -Jess
