    Thought I read "fundamentalist principles" for a moment. Was all, "lolwut?"

    This will be repealed, there is no doubt about it. The only question is when. I bet within a year.

    Let's hope. Things like this policy and others only fuel the fire to homophobia and bills and policies that ban gay marriage and other rights.

    I'm rooting for the LGBT neighbours to the south.

    I think it will be easiest before the November elections after that the makeup of both houses will change almost certainly making it more difficult to pass.

    Hopefully it will be repealed soon. The whole being honest thing sucks, how can you deny your sexuality and not be open about it?
