Supreme Court Will Take Up Two Cases on Gay Marriage


For a number of years same-sex marriage has apparently been a topic of controversy in the United States as the idea of equality is a laughable reality.  This past November same-sex marriage was on the ballot in four states and passed in three; Maine, Maryland, and Washington, with the number of states passing same-sex marriage initiatives increasing.  Currently, the Supreme Court is looking into the “issue” of same-sex marriage because according to federal law marriage is between a man and a woman; I’m sure we all remember several years ago when it seemed like same sex marriage was legal in California.  It is becoming increasingly clear that the United States is divided on the topic and something is going to change, but what?  
I believe that despite the Supreme Court’s involvement, more and more states will pass same-sex marriage and those states will fight for their new laws, demanding equality for every US citizen.  These Same-Sex Marriage states will secede in an attempt to defend what they believe to be right.  There will then be a war, “The Gay Civil War” or the “War of Heterosexual Aggression” as it will be referred to in Same-Sex Marriage states.  It will be the bloodiest war America will see, Greycoats v.s. Rainbowcoats: brother against brother in the fight for marriage equality.  The states that do no secede will have the most to lose, that being the ability to dictate and interfere directly in the personal lives of complete strangers.  It is impossible to tell who will win in this hypothetical future, but either way both sides will suffer enormous losses.  Blood and glitter will stain the text books of the future and most will have wished they instead placed a heavier emphasis on human equality.
