Banning same-sex marriage will help the cause of equality...

[Viking12]

Jim McCollum, a 39-year-old biology teacher from Pierz, Minn., would prefer a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. He believes more visibility for the issue will hurt the cause of equality for gays and lesbians.

"I've been hearing is a lot of Iowa jokes because of it," he said. "I don't think that people ... want their lifestyle to be a joke. It's more in people's faces. It's going to hurt their cause more than help it. It's turning a lot of people who are middle of the road off on them."
