NOM Doesn’t Want Rhode Island’s Gays to Have Rights In Life. Or Death

If you thought the National Organization for Marriage only concerned itself with “redefining” the “institution of marriage,” you’d be wrong. Now Maggie Gallagher & Co. are getting into the death industry.

With Rhode Island’s legislators weighing whether there’s enough support to overturn anti-gay Gov. Don Carcieri’s veto of a bill that would have let the same-sex partners of the deceased claim the body and make funeral arrangements, NOM “urges” lawmakers to drop the attempt and keep the veto. You know, because it’s just one step closer to granting full marriage rights!
