How about the rest of the world where you can be imprisoned for being gay or in some cases put to death.

I was referring to the OP.
The debate about the gay marriage in the US is indeed a completely different argument. It does absolutely affect me in an indirect way. I will see many friends this week coming up from the states. Many of them are taking the "turtle" approach at the moment...slow and steady will win the race.
In the US (and other countries), centuries of intolerance are being challenged, which makes it a very different argument. One I don't have an answer for.
