Target of Homofascism Getting Divorced

California Marriage Amendment supporter - and target of homofascists - Doug Manchester and his wife are divorcing (see Eric Wolff's story in San Diego City Beat). Some marriage neutering activists are taking glee in this. However, I'd like to point out again that divorce, while a bad thing, does not justify marriage neutering, nor does attacking an individual's actions disprove the truth of his public policy positions.

If someone does poorly at a University of California campus, or even cheats and gets kicked out, or later proves to be bad at the subject in which they earned their degree, ...or a donor to the campus later does something wrong... it still doesn't mean I should be awarded a UC degree out of "fairness" because I'm good at surfing but have no desire to study.

But go ahead and enjoy your moment of mean-spirited gloating, if you feel you must.
