Utah anti-gay bill passed in Senate
A bill strengthening Utah's anti-gay laws easily passed the Senate without any debate. Only one senator voted against the bill which will keep Utah from recognizing any same-sex marriage performed in another state. Sen. Chris Buttars, R-West Jordan, compared same sex acts with alcoholism, and that he wouldn't tolerate either. Darin Hobbs, from the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Community Center of Utah said, such a comparison "shows [Buttars'] complete and total lack of knowledge, insight and understanding of those whom he presumes to legislate for."
