In Texas they have banned marriage

Just read this article I pissed myself in Texas they have banned marriage...

However the funnier than funnier ... even more than the Scum getting the spoon a second year .... in an attempt to ban gay marriage they banned all marriages....

I love this kinda stuff and local gov lawyer (trumped up clerk) going for promotion has totally fooked this up...

This is what is says .... """ state may not create or recognize any legal status identical or similar to marriage." it soooooooooooooo fuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnyyyyyy.. IDENTICAL is the word that did it .... what a arse wip the legal writer must be or a guy who wrote it quietly in protest.

I find these things very very very funny ... in an attempt to fix in their eyes a small problem..... they create a mega problem ... every marriage from when they put the law in is illegal ... how funny is that... piss off the voters big time...

Now in the land of suing for anything� imagine this OHHHHHH it�s beautiful (thank God for Governments f**kwits) A couple are getting a divorce partner one says we were never married so your settlement is much less� then that partner sues the Gov� or someone�s sues the gov because they had sex before marriage and the effect it is having on their mind to have broken God�s and Church Law�

Oops: Did Texas Ban Marriage?
Posted by Brian Montopoli

Texas lawmakers wanted to make sure gay people couldn't be married. Instead, it seems, they may have made sure no one can.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram has the story. Here's what happened: In 2005, Texas voters and the state Legislature approved a Constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

But the amendment included the following clause, which was reportedly designed to ban civil unions and domestic partnerships: "This state or a political subdivision of this state may not create or recognize any legal status identical or similar to marriage."

One thing that is "identical�to marriage," of course, is marriage. And Texas Attorney General candidate Barbara Ann Radnofsky, a Democrat, is arguing that the current Attorney General, Republican Greg Abbott, made a "massive mistake" in allowing the language.

"You do not have to have a fancy law degree to read this and understand what it plainly says," she said, according to the Star-Telegram. She called on Abbott to acknowledge the error and consider apologizing.

Abbott says the clause isn't a problem. His spokesman declined to directly address Radnofsky's charges but said the statute is Constitutional. A representative of the group that helped draft the amendment, meanwhile, said a lawsuit based on the wording had little chance of being successful.

But Radnofsky suggested the language clearly bans all marriage.

"Whoever vetted the language in [the clause] must have been asleep at the wheel," she said.
