Don't you think there would be some more support on the Right for civil marriage if opponents were not basically compared to Hitler?

Um, no.

Del Tachi, I'm pretty sure you can go back to 2003-2004 and find Republican federal officials calling the Lawrence decision wrongly decided. That meant they were arguing for the criminalization of gay sex. I certainly would concede that by that date, few were willing to say outright they wanted gay sex to be criminalized, but stood up for the principle that states should be allowed to do so if they wanted.

In NYC we have a straight pride parade; it's called the St. Patrick's Day Parade.

Also, Halloween.
