California: Ban on Same-sex Marriage?

I think it's asinine to create a law trying to ban whom people can marry. It wasn't too long ago that there were laws created against interracial couples. Other than destroying your narrow view of what marriage is, is there any other legitimate reason that could warrant a ban on same sex marriage?

Some people have argued that it would destroy the sanctity of marriage. What sanctity? Married people are now out numbered by single people, which includes divorcees. I'm fairly certain that those are all heterosexual marriages.

The argument that gay marriages will destroy families? As far as I can tell, gays don't need to help out heteros in that department. They do a pretty fine job fucking up families what with abandonment, divorces, child abuse and just unfit households.

This petty issue is sadly some of the issues that drives a deep wedge between people.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
