Later…Nasty hate e-mail below
Deval Patrick, who probably will become Massachusetts’s first black governor, is a godsend, of sorts, to homosexual “marriage” advocates across the country.
If he’s elected, he will try to repeal a 1913 state law that prohibits out-of-state couples from marrying in Massachusetts if the marriage would be illegal in their home state. Sounds like a reasonable restriction to me. How about you?
Well, Patrick and others claim the law was designed to prevent interracial marriage. In my latest Townhall column, I argue, “So what?” The original purpose of the law is in dispute, but whatever its origins, it protects marriage and prevents the state from becoming a “Las Vegas for same-sex marriage.”
Check out what is sure to generate lots of controversy, Deval Patrick: Homosexuals’ Great Black Hope?
But I gladly take the heat because somebody has to stand up for what’s right.
States without express prohibitions against homosexual “marriage” need to write and pass laws against it now. There’s no time to waste.

Update (7:34 a.m.): And the e-mail begins already. Text below the fold (spelling corrected and CAPS removed):
Who Cares.
The press had 24-7 coverage of 171 white Americans sickened by packaged
spinach.Thousands of Black Males are shooting, stabbing, beating other Black males in our Black/Democrat neighborhoods; thousands killed. in Philadelphia: almost 400 suring 2006. Houston about 400: God only know in other major cities. No news coverage.
Black homosexual males are infecting thousands of other homosexual males in our ghettos with HIV/AIDS And Hundred Of Homosexual Black Males are dying from the desease.
No news coverage….
Blacks have more important social and deviant behavior of the black race to worry about homosexuals using black/s tactics to pervert American law.
You can’t win. When I blog about black crime, I’m called a self-hater. When I blog about other topics, they say I don’t care about black people.
That’s why I just blog about whatever I want. 
In other news, black actors reading the Bible…
Later… I wish I’d hear from more people like this commenter:
Hi La Shawn –
I am from Massachusetts.
I am white.
And I am a homosexual.And I could not agree with you more… gay marriage is ridiculous. And for gay people to equate ANYTHING in their lives with the true Civil Rights struggle in this country is heinous. I was recently having this very conversation with a friend of mine (also gay) who is “married†to his partner. When he started in on the “oppression†speech, I told him that with their two expensive homes (one in the city and one at the shore), a couple of six-figure careers, their two Mercedes coupes and more frequent flyer miles than most that he and his “husband†were hardly oppressed.
I find it so ironic that many mainstream gays have come to this. For years they were screaming about being accepted even though we’re “different.†“Embrace diversity…†Blah, blah, blah — and now they seem to have chucked the “diversity†out the window for “sameness†in the name of some perverted sense of equality.
Let me be clear that I am no self-loathing homosexual. I accept who I am but my sexuality is hardly the one quality that defines who I am unlike the screamers on the left.
It sickens me. Thanks for a great article.
This is a heavily edited piece of e-mail I received today:
You’re a f****** c***. You’re nothing but a stupid Aunt Jemima bitch who if she had her way would put homosexuals in concentration camps. Go back to practicing your Eugenics lessons and go back to writing Mein Kampf Edition 2. You are a stupid dumb bitch and you should go f*** yourself you stupid c***… F*** you for bashing homosexuals you stupid holocaust denying bitch. AND PLEASE, for the love of god stop trying to make your people look bad.
If you can believe it, I left out the worst part.
