Why cant we get full marriage?

It's harder today to make a difference than it was in the past. Partly because we can no longer protest without a permit or protest in the streets. If you don't disrupt the system, stop traffic, etc, then it doesn't matter how much airtime you get for your efforts. Any effort to really make a difference can very easily lead to an arrest, or a mass arrest. For me, that's a good reason why we can't get a full marriage.
