Same-Sex Marriage

Confidently, CuTRis walked through the crowd that had gathered for the early morning press conference. There were things to be said, and CuTRis was there to say them. He reached out and grabbed the microphone that was attached to the podium and spoke directly into it which caused a loud shriek of feedback. Satisfied that it was working, CuTRis began to speak.

"As I understand it," CuTRis began, "same-sex marriage is now legal in Minnesota. Well, it's about time opposite-sex marriage became legal too! I stand before you proclaiming equal rights for heterosexual couples! I believe that--"

Just then CuTRis' advisor, Larry, walked up behind CuTRis and whispered something in his ear. Though he was no longer bellowing into the microphone, CuTRis could be heard saying, "Really? That's what it means? Oh crap!" Then CuTRis smiled at the crowd and ran away.
