By that logic, it would be inconceivable that non jews would give a crap about the holocaust.
I tend to think the wholesale slaughter of a group of people should be the concern of society..not that some lumberjack looking females gay married in matching flannel and fresh hockey hair cuts.
Holocaust > gay marriage in terms of impact on society. Murder > marriage
What impacts you? Does gay marriage? Nope. If a dude marries a chair how does that impact you? It doesn't.
What about your dissenting neighbors being rounded up for being Jewish, Slavic, Gay, or hell maybe just not seeing eye to eye with the government, for an extended possibly permanent trip to an internment camp?

So the only distinguishing difference between the issues is magnitude or graveness? It is ok to violate rights as long as nobody is killed? And the only people that should be concerned with it are the ones whose rights are being violated, but not anyone else? Ok now I know where you stand.
Whose rights are being violated by allowing gay marriage?
But yes magnitude and graveness are applicable. Do you get more worried about a scratch on your arm after working in the yard or when you chop off your f@@king leg? All incidents are not created equal. Somethings, going on magnitude or graveness, garner more pull than others..like losing a limb or getting a scratch. So I wouldnt concern myself with gay marriage (ignoring the 0 impact it has on me) when a holocaust is occurring.
Call me a debbie downer if I place genocide a few steps above gay marriage and its impact on society...not that many steps.. Its like Genocide > Another 5-7 season > Gay marriage..on my short list of pressing issues.
