Texas accidently bans all marriages

At last we have equality in Texas!!...although I prefer the route Iowa went, which was to allow legal marriage for people regardless of gender. From your article, here's the crucial sentence of the Texas Constitutional amendment that was approved in 2005:

Quote:
This state or a political subdivision of this state may not create or recognize any legal status identical or similar to marriage.
"Any legal status identical to marriage," of course, is...marriage.

That's a bit of a stretch - people use shotguns for everything down here.

Ah gotta love the lack of proof reading for documents. It reminds me of a state that almost created a National Skate Park rather than State Park.

Leave it to Texas to screw the whole system up! XD

(I'm allowed to rag on Texas. I lived in Austin until I was 14.)

I think that's an unfair assumption unless you actually live here. Texas is such a huge and varied state that you'll get huge differences in attitude between areas.
