You anti-gay bigots will have to adjust, just as anti-Semites, sexists, and racists have had to adjust before you. But, again, you will still be free -- completely free -- to be privately bigoted. You won't have to welcome us into your homes or your hearts. But you can no longer demand that the government persecute us and warp our lives to pander to your bigotry, soothe your insecurities, or give your religious beliefs preference over others. Your biases should not, and one day soon they will not, have the force of law.
