This is not what I think.
“No one is changing any laws with my twenty bucks. It will go from one person to the next, to the next, to the next, and then together with a million other dollars it might possibly be one of many factors in what causes whatever legislation you are referring to to be passed. Last I checked it was already legal for two people to do whatever they want in that regard.”
It doesn’t matter that it’s legal. They use the money to keep it legal and to get more “civil rights”. Even if they need lots of money to do this, every Prutah that is given to this cause is Meesiyah Leiday Aveira. This is such a simple concept -I don’t understand why you don’t Chap it.

All Goyim are Mechuyav to have Courts and these Courts have to punish for the other 6. This money prevents any candidate to get into office that would illegalize their behavior. If we lived in a dictatorship then maybe the regular Hamone Am wouldn’t be Oiver on this Mitzva, but that’s not the way our Gov. works.
