Man sues for the right to marry his Macbook, arguing that if gays are allowed to marry then so should other sexual minorities. 一名男子向法院上诉,认为自己有权和自己的苹果笔记本电脑结婚,理由是如果同性恋可以结婚,他和电脑也可以。 Mr Sevier, who describes himself as “a former judge advocate and combat veteran”, is persistent, filing claims not only in Florida but also Utah. 这名男子名为塞维尔,他描述自己当过军法检察官,是个退伍老兵。他不仅在佛罗里达州上过诉,在犹他州也做过同样的事情。 The Utah claim, which in reality is an attempt to throw a spanner in the works of a gay marriage case in the federal court, runs to 50 pages. 他递交给犹他州法院的上诉状长达50页,诉状中表达了他对联邦法院同性恋结婚法案的质疑。 Mr Sevier argues that allowing gays to marry but denying him the same right amounts to discrimination. 塞维尔称允许同性结婚却不允许我和电脑结婚,是一种歧视。 If gays feel as if they are second class citizens, Mr Sevier argues then “those of us in the real minority, who want to marry machines and animals, certainly feel like third class citizens”. 他说:“如果同性恋认为自己是二等公民,那么我们这些少数想和机器或动物结婚的人岂不是成了三等公民。” |
