It’s defending when you view gay people as subhuman animals.
- pyuser583 3y agoIt was, and is, absolutely clear to everyone what this bill was about. If it had been called the “Support Healthcare for Veterans Act” or even “Interstate Marriage Consistency Act” it would have been dubious. But the 70% of Americans who opposed gay marriage correctly understood its meaning, as did the gay rights activists who saw gay marriage as unobtainable. This wasn’t a confusing or misleading title, as is evidenced by the fact that nobody was confused or misled.

I, for instance, figured a name called "The Defense of Marriage" act would be defending everyone's right to be married. It does the opposite. So count me as someone that considers that name misleading.
