Argentina is the first South American nation to legalize same sex marriage!
This is an incredible leap forward for the LGBT Equal Rights Movement.
This South American country is known for its beauty, its soccer, and its fabulous legend EVITA.
Now they will go into the history books as a true leader among the world, taking a step in a continent that is known for its deep religious conservatism.
As more and more governing bodies around the world make this transition into what is right and good for humanity our nation, "the land of the free" falls behind.
In a country where people strive to be equal and free, we in fact are not.
LGBT people can be fired from their jobs, barred from adopting children, and turned away at the marriage office.
We now have states like Arizona putting legalized racism into the law books.
What does this say for our country. Is the United States of America really United for all of just for some?
In the meantime thank you Argentina for setting an example.
