It makes no sense to have a yes in one state and a no in another....

then all they Gay folk should go to a yes state....I know, easier said than done, but ya'll get the idea
1. Why do you want all gays in New York to leave the state?

2. How would you force all states to have the same marriage laws? Constitutional amendment? Or Supreme Court intervention?

3. You then say that all gays should go to a "yes state", but that contradicts your desire for all states to have the same laws.
