**I for one don't give a damn if gay people get married but I think government shouldn't have anything to do with it. Why do you need a permission slip from the government to love someone and be with them forever? **
You're fine to advocate that position, but to be consistent you would either need to fight to revoke the role of government in ALL marriages, or simply extend that involvement into gay marriages. An all or nothing approach.

Yes I'd revoke it across the board.

Personally, since I see not chance of that ever happening, I would simply extend the rights to more people. Otherwise the effect would be to fight to keep some people from having marriage with a movement that will never succeed in being popular enough to revoke government involvement across the board.
