Angelina and Brad's Engagement Lets Gay Americans Down


Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are getting married. That's utter news! I would hate to deny any person their happiness and tell them they can't walk married after they're in love. Oh, except for with the purpose of is come again? The federal government tells countless gay couples all date by refusing to recognize their constitutional rights to walk married. Angie and Brad spoke prevented in support of gay wedding many period and even vowed they wouldn't say their wedding vows until all and sundry might. Too bad they reneged on their give your word.

Back in a 2006 Esquire article, Brad believed with the purpose of he and Angie "will consider tying the granny knot after all and sundry in addition in the realm who wants to be married is with authorization able." I can't tell you how much this preordained to gay men and lesbian all done the realm. They were two of the number one celebrities to drag attention to the fight in place of wedding equality and did it formerly above-board wedding in states like New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Iowa, California, and others was even considered potential. This brought international attention to the cause and showed with the purpose of they were principled associates who were willing to plunk their beliefs formerly their convenience.

Now they're engaged and it in a minute all seems like a wile. It's as if they didn't plan to walk married in 2006 and believed, "What if we say it's as gay associates can't walk married? Then associates will break bothering us as regards getting hitched and we'll look so noble." Their declaration comes rotten as mercenary preferably than thoughtful. Pitt recently told The Hollywood Reporter, "We made this declaration about moment in time since with the purpose of we weren’t disappearing to carry out it turn over all and sundry can. But I don’t think we’ll be able to embrace prevented." They even knew they were flouting their word but didn't seem to bother anymore.

I'm miserable, Brangelina, but real unit in place of civil constitutional rights don't crumple under pressure after it gets demanding. The pair says with the purpose of their above-board union resources a bunch to the children and that's why they're burden it. What as regards credo their children as regards lasting up in place of come again? You believe in, even after it's tough and unpopular? What if individual of their children grows up to be gay and still can't walk with authorization hitched? What as regards all the gay and lesbian couples prevented in attendance they inspired? What as regards all the straight mothers and fathers and siblings they inspired to fight in place of wedding equality? What as regards the other celebs like Charlize Theron and Kristen Bell who comprise taken a alike assure? Does with the purpose of mean nothing at this time? Huh?

I'm trusty it was a problematical decision with the purpose of mandatory enough of talk, but, to the masses not able to find out their very media-closed doors, it appears as though the pair suddenly ideas, hey, come again? They heck, they'd walk married. Well, in attendance are still millions of associates who don't even comprise with the purpose of option. What are they rumored to carry out? Are their constitutional rights not worth fighting in place of anymore? Apparently not.

Now, I recognize with the purpose of we're conversation as regards a pair of literal good-doers. Brangelina has at all times plunk their money somewhere their beautiful mouths are, even donating $100,000 to fight Proposition 8, the California law with the purpose of blocked gay wedding in the state. If they're disappearing to break their assure and walk married, the slightest they can carry out is come to their associates up in place of donations in place of wedding equality on the ceremony. They don't need gifts, but about checks to gay organizations would be appreciated. Or better yet, take the $732 million with the purpose of the tabloids are trusty to offer in place of exclusive wedding pictures and donate with the purpose of to help fight in place of gay wedding. Leading by pattern is come again? Gay and lesbian Americans really need, but since they've unsuccessful on with the purpose of, we'll on slightest take their money.
