If said tradition is against the law, is it really anti-freedom?
yea, the law doesn't dictate what should and shouldn't be freedoms............what should and shouldnt be freedoms is what should dictate the law.
upholding some made-up societal pledge by law while disallowing same sex people to take the same phony pledge legally doesn't sound like freedom to me
DOMA is law.
in other words, all these cries of freedom and liberty are only cool where you see fit. I see I see how that works.
