No on Prop 8 Protest San Francisco -- Gay Marriage, Nov. 15 2008

[sherriffnoldie]

Gay rights marches in San Francisco used to be angry, loud, with scarcely clad adult men in clown facepaint. Enough to make an entire generation of scared kids into homophobic adults that don't want people like that around kids. Those marches were scary, and were intended to be that way.

Had the marches been like those of Martin Luther King, Jr., or Susan B. Anthony, or Ghandi, or Nelson Mandella, there might have been fewer people with a knee-jerk reaction of distrust. Clowns can be scary.

Disgusting. The moral distruction of america.

[Trannsam]

Sthuper Duper!

[iwant2believe1]

than certainty is frightening to one who believes they are special to God, that they will live eternally in an afterlife prepared for them. They Know that they are righteous, better. I Dare them to have the courage to lay down their arms and love. There is nothing more frightening than laying bare your assumptions and saying- "Challenge me, I will hear you". Whew. End Rant. Got that outta my system for now at least.

[iwant2believe1]

the fear instilled by a person. Follow the inner quiet, be at peace, love people who don't hurt others. You know it's the right thing to do. Don't waste your short life trying to fit the world to your specifications. Learn from others, then decide what you believe. The audience for my little sermon will be incensed that I am daring to give them advice. That's ok, I was once one of those people, I know why. They are so Certain, so Arrogant that they are right, because ambiguity rather...

[iwant2believe1]

Also, if you are SO convinced of the evilness of gay people, meeting some is sure to confirm your suspicions, right? Don't be afraid, they don't bite. Talk to those scary homosexuals. Get those logic wheels turning. THINK, for cryin out loud, sheeple! Is it hell you are afraid of, because you have a "relationship" with God, because you read it? Or are you afraid of what someone, a flawed human, said over the pulpit? If you pray, you know the difference between the inner quiet and (con't)

[iwant2believe1]

Some of these people need to read their bibles- they are going to burn in hell too. There are many sins in that book. And, If these posters are truly Christians, they know that God is the judge, not them. Listen up, guys. You are not on a holy crusade. I was raised to believe that. I know it is flattering. You can feel like the hero desperately struggling to save humanity. My advice: grow up. Read your bible, then make the decision on how you feel about homosexuality. (continued above)

[melovetorun]

If my dad had been gay I wouldnt exist. All you are here because your parents were married the right way. The Bible is not ignorance.

[ItIsNotOkayToBeGay]

Gay rights are a vile ploy of Satan - when it comes down to it, the only "right" they entail is the "right" to burn in Hell for disobeying God's commands. The truly immoral thing to do is to stand idly by instead of protecting the fags from themselves. The Bible is perfectly clear about the sinfulness of sodomy, so why is there even a debate about this matter? If politicians and legislators cannot even be trusted to follow the Bible, how can they be trusted AT ALL?

[melovetorun]

AMEN

[9999garand]

totally

[ramboministry2256]

preach it. these people are blind to the things of God.

[honeyblossom17]

@ItIsNotOkayToBeGay- I was wondering when would I find your disguising ass again!!! You ARE NOTHING BUT a gay basher hiding behind the bible!!! And still showing your hate for us!!!

You are truly pitiful!!!!

[product123456]

I believe Homosexuality is a choice

however i don't believe that gay marriage should be illegal

[JesusWasStupid]

How is it a choice? When did you make the choice to be straight?

[9999garand]

when i decided i wasnt a fag.

[paulsboroman]

If you are gay (or gay friendly) and need a reason for doing volunteer work for a gay rights organization in your state, just read the hateful and distorted comments by homophobes like AUTORECOVERYUK on this site. There's a whole bunch of different ways to volunteer, and you'll feel great about it when you're done. By the way, the largest and most effective gay rights organization in New Jersey is Garden State Equality. You can stand up for your rights!

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

All i can say about this is in the begining there was Adam and Eve. If it had of been Adam and Steve none of us would of been born. I aint no Christian or church going person but if gays can have their way and say then so can the rest of the normal straight people...

[RapscallionRebellion]

So, your arguing for incest then? Is that it?

(and if you actually believe we came from Adam and Eve, then you are seriously gullible)

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

No i am defending good normal straight people who dont pretend to be something we are not like a lot of the gay world does. If all that is good should be gay according to them then remember if their parents had of been gay then their would of been a strong chance they would of not been born at all. Stop protesting and forcing everyone to hear your gay views. Do it behind closed doors as the majority of straight people are fed up having to listen to you go on and on about gay this and that.

[RapscallionRebellion]

Time to pull your head out of your arse and see the fight for what it is - a fight for equal rights. Nothing more.

It's always the "good normal straight" people who are part of the "judge not, least you be judged" crowd that are the most vicious and the most insecure.

If gays get full rights, you realize it will likely not impact your world at all. It's all just fear mongering stirred by by the mormons and catholics.

And you're falling for it beautifully.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Why do i as a straight normal person want to be equal to a bunch of people who want something thats not normal not intended to happen in human life or in the religious world of any kind. If you want to live together in gayness get on with it but dont keep rubbing it in our faces. We dont want to know about the gay life as you do want to be straight. Keep yourselves to yourselves and perhaps more people would accept it. Force your views and straight people get fed up with it

[RapscallionRebellion]

You are an ignoramus, aren't you?

Why on earth do you care what your neighbor does? Are you that uptight that you have to force your "truth" on others?

I'll let you in on a little secret - homosexuality happens in nature about the same percentage that it happens in humans. That pretty much renders it natural.

The truth of this discussion is YOU are uncomfortable with it and therefore it should be not allowed.

You need to get over yourself. And stat.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Just thank god your parents were not gay or you would not be here writing on you tube. So being straight cant be all that bad can it as you came from a straight couple

[RapscallionRebellion]

Well, here's another newsflash for you - lots of homosexuals married because it wasn't safe for them to be "out". So they married, had children and lived a life where they lied to themselves and their families.

But apparently that's ok with you, because as long as they play along and maintain the illusion, then you're comfortable with them.

So again, thanks for the completely ignorant statement.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Well in that case the gay people in question should be completely ashamed of their selves. Getting married when they did not have true feelings for the person they are getting married to is disgusting. I sure as hell would never marry a bloke as i dont go that way. So if the gays have such a good case and strong views i know lets marry a woman and wreck her and the childrens life later on when he comes out in front of the family. Well done that gay bloke. NOT...

[RapscallionRebellion]

And that is exactly why we are fighting for gay marriage - so people aren't forced to live a lie. As I mentioned before, it was unsafe in many places for gays to live openly and be true to themselves. Yobs like you would likely have hurt them.

The people who should be completely ashamed are people like you, you don't understand anything about homosexuality, yet judge it anyway (usually because some bullshit unprovable book tells them to)

I think that's the most disgusting thing of all.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

No sorry to burst your bubble i'm not a yob I run my own respectable company and am fighting my point as a lady friend of mine who committed suicide. Her bent husband came out her sons walked out in disgust and later on she committed suicide over it. So thanks to that bent husband a family was destroyed and a innocent woman died. So if her bent husband had of been a real man he would of just not got married. Instead he takes the easy option and destroys a life. Well done the gay men of the world

[RapscallionRebellion]

No, you can thank society for leaving only one option open for a gay man who wanted a family. You think it's easy to live a lie - it's not. It's hard, and it obviously ate at him until he admitted the truth.

If gay marriage had been a legal option, he would likely never have married her - he would have married a man and tried to adopt.

You may run your own "respectable" company, but mentally you are a yob. Just a run-of-the-mill ignorant bigot. I'm sorry to burst YOUR bubble.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

If i watch a war film on TV i dont start a war if i watch a police chase i dont drive fast hoping to get chassed by police. So if your gay dont get married to an opposite sex person destroy their life their family and friends they have just to cover your secret up So a bigot i may be but at least i know who i am what sex i am and i am not hurting or killing anyone in the way my sexuality is. Shame the gay people of the world dont practise what they preach and then my friend would still be alive

[RapscallionRebellion]

How easy it is to sit in your armchair and judge. That's usually the only thing the bigots do well. Congrats on that.

Your last comment made absolutely no sense whatsoever. Gays are out now. They no longer need to cover up their secrets. Nice try there, though.

Good for you for knowing your sexuality. Now try having a gov't take your rights to marry away from you and see how well that goes down.

Shame on the bigots of the world - to not want to share the joy a marriage and family can bring.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

If the gov't took away the wright for men and women to marry it would be done for a reason. But as there are more straight than gay people that will never happen but if it did we would have to accept it as it would be LAW. If the gov't did not want gays to marry it was for a reason. And children need a mother and a father not a father and a father nor a mother and a mother. Children need the love of man and woman then decide what they want when they are old enough. Not be forced into a gay life

[RapscallionRebellion]

Yeah, if the gov't took away your "rights" you wouldn't take it lying down. Unless you trust your gov't implicitly, in which case you would be the kind of apathetic flaky the gov't loves.

Human rights are human rights, no matter the color, creed or sexuality.

As far as children needing 2 parent families, well first you can start with getting involved in your community and help those kids who come from single parent families. But I'm sure you'd rather just sit in your armchair - and judge.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Unlike the gay community i dont march through towns forcing my word on people. I dont try to change laws that have been laid down for years Or make out how hard done by i am hoping the world will feel sorry for me. And i do help out single parent families i know 2 boys who have a dead mother and a gay father that tore their home apart. But the truth aint something you lot like to hear is it. Good luck on your mission you will never be equal to straight people as straight people will never be gay

[RapscallionRebellion]

You don't need to march for anything - you have all of your rights. You really can't see past the nose on your face, can you?

In regards to these 2 boys - you didn't actually say if you "DO" anything for them - or if you only hold them up as a sad example of the perils of gay's marrying?

I've yet to see you make a valid point. Knee-jerk reactions does not a valid point make. Which is why it is just a matter of time before gay marriage is legal everywhere.

Human rights will win eventually.

[kingofgames35]

human writes will always win over stupid law rights. Human writes have more meaning.

[kingofgames35]

Well it wasn't the husbands fault. the stupid ass wife shouldn't have went over the deep end. I would have just did what the sons did and walked out. It was her own fault for killing herself

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Well it just shows how much compassion you have and i can deduce from that comment that you are in favour of the gay side of things. If thats how you feel over a innocent woman taking her life after finding out her husband was gay then you and the gay community have her blood on your hands. I hope her death has inspired you and makes you happy in your fight for gay rights. People like you are sick and only have a heart when it suits you or your cause. If you want to be equal get a heart first..

[hlambert12]

this doesn't make any sense.

[honeyblossom17]

@AUTORECOVERYUK- You are one ignorant fuck! you know that!!!

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@honeyblossom17 So what if i am what you say. At least i know who i am what sex i am and dont break the law when i marry. My life and actions dont harm anyone as i live my life as the man i was born and if everyone lived the life and sex that god made them the world would be a better place.

[honeyblossom17]

@AUTORECOVERYUK- You are such a fucking asshole! It does not matter about what sex you are, or if you go by the rules that society gives you! Who fucking CARES about what sex you are!!! The world does not go around that! And by the fucking way if I (a lady) feels that she has a little more masculine than other females YOUR DAMN RIGHT I'm going to do whatever I want that makes me feel comfortable!!!! FUCK YOU AND WHAT SOCIETY THINKS ABOUT IT!!!

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@honeyblossom17 Well with a foul mouth like yours and you knowing how to swear like you do. I reckon you'll do well pretending to be a man. Thank god i dont have to lower myself to your level to pretent to be someone i am not.

[ButteryAssBacon]

If your gay fuck yeah! Do your thing.

everyone should be able to do what they want in life.

[tofylennox]

well, i think that was just lovely. that transgender guy at the end loox real classy.<3

[OMHRIMDURGA]

We are fighting for our families. If someone tried to destroy your family you would be in the streets protesting too! Yeson8...you have your right to your opinion, when do I get to vote on your civil rights?

[yessson8]

Fuck You HOMO

Go sit on an AIDS infected cock for a few weeks

[DancetotheMusicxxx]

Im straight and you make me sick the way you are talking. Gays deserve rights just as anyone else does. There is no reason for name calling people who are innocent

[yessson8]

Moron, they already have the exact same rights as everyone else

It is another lie put forth by the HOMO agenda and their HOMO minions in the media

[Minionuup]

"Fighting for our families"? Wow you homos just slop on the drama. Your are fighting to disgrace a religion that doesn't agree with your lifestyle. You are a fascist.

[RapscallionRebellion]

Actually, religion pretty much disgraces itself thanks to the multitudes of hypocrites who follows its "path of light"

It's just an excuse for the bigoted to feel justified.

[yessson8]

After the crushing defeat of YES on 8 Winning, the FAggots and Dykes are left with a sour taste in their filthy cum filled mouths

Now they take to the streets to mock humanity even further with notions of fake, pretend, make believe HOMO marriage

But even if the subhumans in black robes allow the FAGGOTS, DYKES and TRANNIES their false marriages it will never be marriage

It will never be marriage in the minds of Americans because anyone with a brain knows what a real marriage looks like

[RapscallionRebellion]

You have the sneering posting style of the unfucked.

Clazzy.

[mosicdef]

Alright smashcast!

[clearskybird]

good vedio.

[adelinesweetheart]

hell yeah i was there.

[BreederWatch]

12 days 8 hours and 4 minutes since the first black president whose own parents marriage was illegal in 13 states remains silent on the largest social issue of our day. Mrs. Bush comments on a single acid attack. Who did we vote for?

[Minionuup]

Smash the militant homo left.

[eklectyk]

Great work Smashcast! Equality is our right!

[enyalid]

Homosexuality is just plain sick and wrong. You homosexual activists who keep pushing this putrified diaper in our face are predators and you should be treated as such.

[OMHRIMDURGA]

ENYALID - You have a right to your opinion. If someone tried to destroy your family I'm sure you would stand up and fight, I'm sure you wouldn't back down. This is why we are in the streets protesting...these are our families, our spouses, our children, our friends.

We are not asking for your acceptance or approval... we are demanding the fundamental rights given to all Americans. This is our country too!

[badanarama]

Nice, yet smaller, protest in San Luis Obispo today. Lots of hope for the future. Lets keep the ball rolling :)

Thanks for posting the vid.
