Utah - We Hate the Gays or Think of the Children (link)

Affirming a federal judge's decision allowing same-sex marriage in Utah would be a "judicial wrecking ball" to state sovereignty, the state says in a new court filing.

State attorneys asked the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to let Utahns choose for themselves how to strike the right balance between competing interests in the marriage debate — a balance that in their judgment best serves the interest of children now and in the future.

Upholding U.S. District Judge Robert J. Shelby's ruling would "impose — by judicial fiat rather than democratic processes — the novel principle that marriage is whatever emotional bond any two (or more) people say it is."

In the early 20s, there were a painter competition in USSR about Lenin.
One of the works was a painting, named "Lenin in Poland" --- showing Krupskaya with three of bodyguards in the bed.

One member of the committee asked:
- "Where is Lenin?
The painter:
- In Poland...

It comes whenever you chime in.
