Guests Doug Benson and Peter Nickitas On March 6, 2009, three
same-sex couples walked into the office of the Hennepin County
local registrar in Minneapolis and applied for marriage licenses.
They were denied. They sued and lost in Trial Court. Now they are
headed for the Appellate Court, and Minnesota Atheists has filed a
friend-of-the-court brief on their behalf. Our guests will be Doug
Benson, the lead plaintiff in the case, and Peter Nickitas, their
lawyer. Marry Me Minnesota http://marrymeminnesota.org/ Marry
