Gibbons Vetoes Nevada Domestic Partnerships

HOW UNBELIEVABLE!!

Domestic Partnerships are not marriages!! Please God, lets CASC do the right thing tomorrow..

First they say civil unions are just a ruse for granting marriage to GLBT couples. Then they try to tell us that marriage itself is sacred and civil unions are good enough for those people. Over the long-term, it's rather amusing to watch them dissemble. But in the short term, they cause much damage.

well I guess Vegas doesn't need my money then....fine, I won't be going to that state now either. I'll spend my $2,000.00 vacation budget somewhere else.

Harrah's Casinos are pushing for a veto override over concerns about this.(It must be noted that Las Vegas is not Nevada: Clark County is much, much more gay-friendly then the rest of Nevada, which is a very conservative State.)

When will we react? Las Vegas is IN Nevada. Let them change this, till then there are other places to gamble. We need to show support to those who show support to us. The people of Nevada elected the hypocrite cheating Gibbons. They also voted the mentioned amendment. If they want GLBT money, make some changes!

I absolutely agree!

Please don't bring your $2k to Florida. Find somewhere else to go. Thanks!

The Govenor is another dodo bird that will someday look back on this issue and wonder: Where was my head?

What I noticed about this story was that while Gibbon's was proud to trumpet his signing of the bill which extended anti-discrimination protections on Friday, he waited until late in the day of a holiday to announce that he was going to be the first to violate the spirit of it, by vetoing the limited protections that the domestic partnership bill offered. Hopefully, the legislature will be able to round up the two votes in each chamber that they will need to override this idiotic decision....
