From the mouth of babes oft times comes gems, and this is one of those times.

Carter Gustafson, 8 3/4, recently penned an awwwww-inspiring letter addressed to all Minnesotans. It first appeared on the California-based NOH8 Facebook page.

Little Carter loves his two moms, and he's worried about what might happen if the same-sex marriage ban is approved. "If this passed, can be we still be a family?" he asks. "[C]an my moms be arrested?"

"This means a lot to me because I love my moms!" Carter writes.

and if he wrote something saying the opposite he would mocked and accused - parents shamed because they were raising a "hate-monger" for a child. This is a crap world we are leading ourselves into and these "moms" should be ashamed for having their kids do the dirty work.   

Ask yourself this,  If love does make a family, then why do we need to change our laws to accomodate those people that can legally exist they way they are currently.  What happens when the Muslims start rallying to have polygamy legalized in this country? What is wrong with that?   Their is "love" in those relationships as well, but they are forced to hid themselves since their lives would be in upheaval as Polygamy is illegal.

Adorable and really sad questions. They make crystal-clear that banning same-sex marriage has nothing to do with protecting the well-being of families and children.
