The cause is admirable, and this young man is amazing. In 2004, Ohio passed “Issue 1″ which made the ban on gay marriage part of the Ohio constitution with 75% of the vote. Time will tell if 2013 has actually changed from 2004, but it really does not look all that promising. However, someone had to so something, and I’m glad that something is being done.

@tdx3fan: Issue 1 passed with 62% of the vote, NOT 75%.

@orcanyc: Not just a fellow Ohioan, but the dude is from Cincinnati. Cincinnati is the most virulently anti-gay city in all of Ohio, and is much more repressed than any other major city.
