Perhaps this will help end the red herring argument that there is "no threat of redefining marriage" in Minnesota:

Minnesota Democrats introduced a bill [last Friday] that would repeal the state’s Defense of Marriage Act, which prohibits same-sex couples from benefiting from the rights and responsibilities of marriage.

The bill, the Marriage and Family Protection Act, was offered just as heated debate at the Capitol continues over a proposed constitutional amendment that would write a ban on gay marriage into the state constitution. -- Minnesota Independent
