Prop. 8 Protest, May 26th 2009
No On Prop. 8
California’s Prop. 8 says that “Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California”; I find this insane, freedom is about everyone being free and equal, until we are all equal none of us are free.
It is so simple, a no briner, and yet people get so uptight about it. Anyone who opposes the right for any consenting adult to do what they like and have the same rights ans anyone else must be be doing it on religious grounds, because God said so, and in that case there is no point arguing with you… but you don’t need me to rant about that… do you?

I went along to the Prop. 8 protes in San Franciso today, six of my friends were among the hundreds arrested by some very plesent policemen, they held the intersection of Grove and Van Ness for three or four hours.
Sorry, enemies of gay marriage. Prop 8 or no, you’ve already lost
Gay marriage is a foregone conclusion. It’s a done deal. It’s just a matter of time. For the next generation in particular, equal rights for gays is not even a question or a serious issue, much less a sinful hysterical conundrum that can only be answered by terrified Mormons and confused old people and inane referendums funded by same. It’s just obvious, inevitable, a given. (Mark Morford)
