What's being called a satirical response to last year's gay marriage ban, John Marcotte, a married Sacramento man, is trying to get a measure on the ballot that would ban divorce in California.
"Since California has decided to protect traditional marriage, I think it would be hypocritical of us not to sacrifice some of our own rights to protect traditional marriage even more," the 38-year-old married father of two said.
Marcotte needs 694,354 signatures by March 22 to get the measure on the ballot, and to date, he has "collected dozens" including one from his own wife. [ABC7]
