Gay Couple Sues over Use of Their Photo in Anti-Gay Mailer
Have no idea why or how their engagement photo ended up being used for political purposes
A New Jersey gay couple whose engagement photo was used in a Colorado campaign attack mailer said Wednesday the image that once represented their commitment now makes them cringe.
The couple filed a lawsuit in Denver federal court against the group that used the photo without their permission and put it on mailers against a Colorado Republican state lawmaker who supported a failed civil unions bill.
