why are you aggressive? Why is someone who doesn't agree with you an "idiot"?
The irony of your so called tolerance...

you guys are fucking idiots!!! why the hell do you care if a guy and a guy or a women or another women get married!! let them live there own lives and live yours; dont judge others.

I still don't understand what the problem is. Traditional marriage isn't in danger at all. Gay people can marry and are happy, straight people still can marry and be happy as well. Just because gay people can marry there won't be more gays - if that is what the conservatives are afraid of.
So, the gay people gain something very important, and the others don't lose anything. Everybody could be happy.

This prop 8 thing pissed me off so much... "democracy" shouldn't be about a majority depriving a minority of its rights.

I sure hope that the four judges pictured in this post have seen this. Nothing will make them throw Prop 8 as an unconstitutional revision quicker than if they see how the Yes on Prop 8 people portrayed them as "liberal" judges that ignored the "will" of the intolerant majority. In fact six out of seven were Republican appointees. I think you Yes people made a BIG mistake, and I bet the judges get even with you and throw out your little piece of hate known as Prop 8...

"marriage is handled by religion"
Try telling that to married atheist couples!
It is very much within the state's interest to support institutions that benefit society as a whole. Traditional marriage between one man and one woman provides the best means of strengthening the family unit.
Heterosexual marriage is recognized by states and religions all around the world, past and present. In other words, church and state are consistently IN AGREEMENT on this issue.

The judges never "took away" anyone's vote. They merely pointed out that voting on the meaning of marriage is unconstitutional because marriage is handled by religion. Voting on it's meaning is a violation of separation of church and state. Vote no on 8, but remember your rights. If there is ever a time where a judge or jury tries to force a church to perform a gay marriage ceremony, remind them of this separation. The church defines marriage, NOT the state. And not all churches have to agree.

Praise be to the 3 REPUBLICAN judges with guns :-)
Please donate so we can defeat this measure. These people will stop at nothing to promote lies, hate, and bigotry, along with denying basic rights against fellow gay Californians. Our State Constitution that guarantees equality under the law for all citizens means nothing to them. America is all about Freedom, Equality, and Liberty. These people are using religion and children to promote discrimination, bias and enact anti-American laws.

"Let's come together and vote for the kids"
This really has nothing to do with kids at all. MANY gay couples have them, even without the rights attributed to marraige, and they still will without them. The only real effect this has is taking away protections of those children. If you claim they are hurt already, how does hurting them more help?
