Some marriages she'd like to put to a vote

I WANT the opportunity to vote to deny men and women who have been divorced more than once the right to ever remarry, since they obviously do not respect the sanctity of marriage.

I want the opportunity to vote to require men and women who harm their spouses to never be able to marry again.

I also want the opportunity to vote to require men and women who have children to teach those children to respect others and to not take guns and kill other people.

I want to vote to disallow men and women who harm their children -- even if they do so inside of a legal marriage -- from ever being able to have children again.

I believe I am in the majority on these issues. Indeed, I believe I am in the majority about many issues of how legally bound different-sex people should behave, particularly in regard to their children, the outcomes of which would make a tremendous impact on the moral structure of our society.

If only I had the opportunity to vote on these issues.
