It does not matter that the water coming out of the "whites" and "coloreds" drinking fountains comes from the same pipe. It does not matter that the back of the bus arrives at the bus stop at the same time as the front of the bus.

Reserving "marriage" for straights and giving same-sex couples "I-can't-believe-it's-not-marriage!" is no different.
