Larry Grover’s ‘I Was There’: The Constitution Is Violating Itself!

Yes, the Constitution is the sacred document of our nation. It is our cherished charter, the greatest to have come from the pen of a people looking to perfect the art of self-governance as it struggled to break free from the monarch, the despot, the dictator. But………doesn’t the Consitution also gaurantee my rights to be married? I’m a heterosexual and since time began I have owned the word “marriage.” Now gays want to also have a piece (I’ll bet they do..haha..or I mean, lol) No, they cannot. The Constitution says that…well the Constitution doesn’t say it but everyone knows “marriage” has been for straight people. Everyone knows it. They do. It goes way back. Is that a law, you ask? No but it’s tradition. Don’t we protect traditions in America? Except for slavery and working kids in mine shafts. Naturally, we do not honor those traditions. But marrige is a good tradition. Excluding Americans from things other Americans get to do is not a tradition, you’re right. But…..we don’t let brothers and sisters marry, do we? I know there aren’t a lot of them wanting to get married and there are a lot of gays wanting to get married but if I went out there and asked how many brothers and sisters wanted to get married I’ll bet I’d get a lot of them and then I could mount a campaign and make the gays look stupid. See, what I am saying does make sense. But no one will listen to me because people are all about “rights” this and “rights” that. What about my right to say “you don’t have a right”? What about that? I want people to know that I continue to fight on even though my wife and kids left and my mother mocks the fact I am not circumcised by calling me “missile dick” and doing a fake countdown when I walk into the kitchen in the morning. Mother: “5…4…3…oh, I’m sorry. I meant, 3…2…1….”
