This is one of those lesser of evils things, since their poll doesn't have the
option "get the state out of all marriage, gay and straight". But we should
definitely send a strong message to the AFA about their crusades against
alternative families. (So please pick the second choice -- favoring
legalization.)
Thanks Rob, I just responded to that poll and was going to forward it. Marriage equality isn't even something I'd term a "lesser evil," any more than I'd term giving blacks the right to vote a lesser evil (even if it meant giving them the right to vote, along with everyone else, to approve things like local taxes that no one should have the right to impose on others). I see legal gay marriage as an unequivocal step in the right direction.
Yours in liberty,
