Villaraigosa, Gay Marriage & the Wedding Crasher

Mayor Villaraigosa officiates over the marriage of a same-sex couple

After missing the boat on the first days of same-sex marriage due to two out-of-town trips, Mayor Villaraigosa finally began to fill his promise of marrying "as many people as possible." Yesterday afternoon, he joined together Bruce Cohen and Gabriel Catone. Cohen is an Academy Award-winning producer for American Beauty and has also produced Big Fish and Pushing Daisies and Catone is an art consultant in New York.

As the ceremony came to an end and champagne was poured, a woman by the sobriquet "Angel of the Trinity" went up to the podium denouncing the marriage and called the mayor an "adulterer." She warned that same-sex marriage would bring on earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes, says the LA Times.

As for the newlywed couple, they said the unexpected incident "added spice" to their day.

It's so smug to predict earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes because they will always happen. What about plagues of frogs or locusts? Rivers of blood? In the old days curses had a little more pizzazz.

 

If heterosexuals continue to get divorced as they have been for decades, rivers will flood across the land. And we'll have more tornadoes too. All heterosexuals must stop divorcing immediately, stay married for life, and keep their vows -- till death do they part! Divorce mocks marriage, demeans its sanctity, and harms children.

 

" In the old days curses had a little more pizzazz."

(with each telling no doubt.)

Yep the Lawrdah is about to smite the shit out of us all! If he went and threw a hairycane at New Orleans just fer havin' a homaseshul parade, just think what he's a gonna dew ta us!!

Halleluya!!!

 

Wellllll she's KIND of right... With all the honeymoons the gays are having, the beds are definitely a rockin'.... but that ain't no earthquake, sweet cheeks, that's the motion of the ocean, also known as making sweet sweet love.

 

Angel of the Trinity, what does my ass taste like?
