.@chrisgeidner Too often we fall into trap of using "citizens" to convey extra dignity. It gets 14A wrong & is wrong thing to do.

@JoshACLU I get what you're saying, but I was not as focused on the word "citizen" as I was with the nonsense phrase "same-sex citizens." -
@chrisgeidner yeah, saw your follow up tweet after I hit send on mine. Same sex citizen is the name of my new band.

@chrisgeidner "Citizens" used before then too - e.g., "the sexual and moral choices of homosexual citizens enjoy constitutional protection" -
@chrisgeidner curious -- but seems she chose "citizens" advisedly -- repeatedly uses it ... citation of Plyler ironic there -
@JoePaulson2 citizens is fine. WTF are "same-sex citizens"? -
@chrisgeidner ah -- well "persons" are protected, not just "citizens," so that threw me ... but yeah looks like a typo
