Here’s a photo of a group celebrating the prevention of gay marriage in Maine last night. Maybe it’s just because I’m in Canada but is it wrong that I think this is kind of funny?









Old bitch in the front is literally on her knees because she’s so happy same-sex couples can’t be legally wed. That ginger mom wearing the scarf? She is so obviously pleased with herself. I guess what’s funny to me is that in, I dunno, ten years, once everyone gets over hating the gays, those self-satisfied smiles will seem so evil to everyone, the modest god-fearin’ clothes will look like a flimsy disguise, and these people will be remembered for the exact opposite of what they think they’re accomplishing. Savor those grins ladies, you don’t know it yet, but you’re history’s monsters.








sigh.
