Virginia gays up in arms over new law
Usually quiet Hampton Roads, Virginia, gays have had enough. A new law that will outlaw all contracts among people of the same sex, including business ventures, wills and child custody arrangements, goes into effect next week. "Our community hasn't galvanized like this before over a cause," said Keith Flippen , a local actor and television producer. "We see this as a direct assault on our futures in the state of Virginia. It's a slap in the face. There comes a time when you have to say, 'Enough, no.'" To us it seems pretty clear that time is now.
