Wow, what a story! And yes, we’ve come along way but it’s scary how many rights are in danger of being rolled back right now. We can’t let that happen.

All of this was so painfully unnecessary. I agree that your rights were guaranteed by the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. We'd better get our act together and start supporting each other before the GOP gets back in control of our government. What a sh-t storm that's going to be!

Brave of you to live in a country which not only does not recognize your marriage, but actively persecutes (?) gay people. Is that true?

We were teargased at gay pride yesterday. The government is terrible, but there are a lot of great folks here trying to change things.

Sadly, yes. But I don't think we're particularly brave. We're tourists spending money so no one is going to bother us.
