I want to be mayor of San Francisco! That means I can ignore the duly passed and signed laws of my State and do whatever I feel like doing. This would be cool, to quote Butt-head.

A sample proclamation from Mayor C. Pundit:

"I find that this needless assault weapons ban denies equal protection to all citizens of San Francisco. Therefore, I repeal the ban and will begin the immediate handing out of AK-47s and their derivatives to all residents of the city and whoever else drives in to get one. Ammunition will also be provided for a nominal fee. We are for equality and justice in San Francisco, and it is my job to see it done. Oath of office? What's that?"

It goes without saying that I oppose the very idea of homosexual 'partnerships' being granted the sanction of the state through a ceremony of marriage. I'm also dead set against these civil unions as well. I am not persuaded by whiny arguments about love and commitment. Just because you "love" something doesn't mean that I, or the state, have to extend approval to your emotion.

The state gets to make a choice here and it has done so. It could have chosen to endorse these sorts of things, but has not. I don't see the state (as opposed to the State, which would be California) as being required to endorse either marriage or homosexual alliance. I would further posit that simply because it has chosen to endorse one does not lend support to the proposition that it must also endorse the other.
