Oregon county bans all marriages

"We are happy Benton County is not going to violate the law by issuing illegal marriage licenses, but we are perplexed as to why they would not issue legal licenses" - Tim Nashif, Defense of Marriage Coalition

Now, that is fair for all people. I have no problem with that. Of course, as expected, the Marriage Coalition does have a problem. I guess they miss being able to discriminate so openly. (story)
