Yes.
I have been meaning to post about this, but so far all I have is wordless sputtering fury.

I don't understand how anyone with any shred of intellectual honesty can now say that marriage doesn't matter "because gays can just get power of attorney". That claim, already dubious, is now completely invalidated.

I shouldn't be proud of my state for protecting these rights, because it shouldn't be one of the few exceptions.

Oh, and Florida can suck it. Tourism economy? You've received my last dollar. If you can't treat my family and friends as human beings, you don't deserve it.

Many thanks for linking. I hope your readers know that while empathy is all well and good, it's what makes us human, we also have to *act*: make the phone call, make a donation, make time to talk to someone about the issue. Make it happen. The time is now.

Yeah, I think this happened a bit ago, but I still think about constantly.

It's one of my biggest fears that will happen to me on either side of the fence.
Thankfully my own family if they were called in accepts and would not deny my partner seeing me.

But my girlfriend is not out and her family is very fundamentalist so am definitely looking into what Poa stuff we need...
