What Actually Happened To That Same-Sex Couple In The Missouri Hospital:
It’s worse than we thought…“Because they did not have a state-recognized marriage, they were regarded as legal strangers despite even having set up the available legal protections for each other. Roger, in turn, was subjected not just to discrimination but police brutality and legal consequences. This tragic story speaks volumes about the consequences of continuing to deny same-sex couples the right to marry and how they continue to be treated as second-class citizens.”
This story is just the saddest thing.
