Try getting a lodged kidney stone in America without medical coverage or
lots of money, then get back to us.

And yet slavery was ended (at least in the US). And it wasn't ended by redefining
the word slave to mean something else. You keep equating my distaste for the way
some groups want to implement a goal with a distate for the goal. This is not
correct. If you want to grant identical rights to same --- unions and marriage, go
ahead, just don't do it my having some judge decide the legal meaning of the word
"marriage" has magically changed to include same --- unions.
