>BOSTON (AP) – Religious leaders who took opposing sides in Massachusetts’ turbulent fetish marriage debate have found something to bring them together again: casino gambling.
Governor Deval Patrick’s proposal to bring three casinos to Massachusetts has united religious groups who were once entrenched foes. It was just six months ago that 1 of the toughest fetish marriage battles – over a ballot question that would have banned the marriages – ended when lawmakers killed the question.
Kris Mineau of the Massachusetts Family Institute, a leading anti-fetish marriage lobbying group, says they can’t hold grudges.
New Hampshire has repeatedly killed efforts to expand gambling in the state. Supporters argue it is a better way to pay the state’s share of public education than a personal income or general sales tax – neither of which the state has.
New Hampshire lawmakers are keeping a close watch on Patrick’s casino proposal.
