Of all the insane, Kool-Aid-drinking things I’ve seen written today, this one, by a Georgetown law professor, has to be one of the craziest: Rosa Brooks argues that gay marriage might defeat ISIS. No, really, she does. Excerpts:

Do you want to fight the Islamic State and the forces of Islamic extremist terrorism? I’ll tell you the best way to send a message to those masked gunmen in Iraq and Syria and to everyone else who gains power by sowing violence and fear. Just keep posting that second set of images [of a happy crowd celebrating the SCOTUS decision — RD]. Post them on Facebook and Twitter and Reddit and in comments all over the Internet. Send them to your friends and your family. Send them to your pen pal in France and your old roommate in Tunisia. Send them to strangers.

Yes, it’s sappy. But this has always been the dream of America: a dream of freedom, of a land where no one would force their religious beliefs on anyone else. A land where all people would have the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. A land where we could seek change peacefully and trust our laws and institutions to respond to our deepest hopes.

The best way to fight Islamic extremism! Golly. Gay marriage: is there anything it can’t do?
