    That fits perfectly with my ultimate plan of placing all homophobes and human-hating-people on mars, make the biggest reality show ever - who will survive ? who will not ? who cares ? soon on HBO.

    As funny as the idea of all of the homophobes being shipped away to an isolated island/planet where they can do whatever they want with each other, I can't help it but hearing the echo of the past when they say the same thing to us.
    It is progress when the acceptance of LGBT people becomes the majority, but if we use our majority power to bully the minority, it wouldn' t be different to what they did to us before.
    I rather have a future when people can just accept differences and live normally.

    Quite the contrary. After same-sex marriage was legalized in Iowa back in 2009, the voter outrage boiled over into the 2010 elections a year and a half later, where they ousted 3 of the Supreme Court justices who ruled unanimously, 7-0, in favor of equality. Nowadays, support for gay marriage is around 54%, and in the 5 years since it became legal, people have realized that the sky's not falling in and it's not a big deal.

    Let's suppose that it were true: that in fact, population shifts are not only correlated with but caused by the advance of marriage equality. In that version of reality, this would not be an undesirable result. True, it would make those equality states safer at the cost of making other states more unsafe (a priori, a bigot moving into a state makes it more unsafe), but at the same time, concentrating the problems in one place makes it easier to solve.

    The judicial system is eventually going to solve the problem anyway, so that bigots will have no choice but to move to Greece. This should appeal to them, since it has a growing fascist movement, and its austerity measures should excite the "fiscally conservative" amongst them.

    I know this is pretty unorthodox but if people flee from Texas (or other states) who oppose Same-Sex Marriage (SSM), wouldn't that be considered a good thing? Consider the following: There are less than half the states left where statues and whatever ban SSM. If people who oppose SSM move out and more and more states rule in favor of SSM, where else would they go (that is, if they want to stay in the US.) My response, let them. It's gonna boil down to them either leaving or learn to tolerate SSM.
