Re: A Tribute to African Americans Who Voted Yes on Prop 8

This is a response to a despicable video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auQfzav5K5o

I know this is not representative of all African Americans.
I am only addressing the people who supported Prop 8
and do not support Gay Marriage

It is sad that a community that fought so hard for its rights
and against bigotry has forgotten their past
and is congratulating themselves on this "victory"
It is veiled bigotry and hatred. Two things that Jesus actually does condemn

I'm sorry, but I agreed with you up to a certain point because of many reasons. You can't compare the oppression that blacks in the u.s. faced in the u.s. to what gays( of all races faced) are facing now. there is racism in the gay community. I like how people fail to mention that. black people make up less than 10% of California's population. Whites a greater "power' over laws than blacks do. Black people are still discriminated against. Just because Obama is president doesn't mean shit.

I'm black, gay, and Christian. Talk about a minority. Lol. In the Bible, the book of Leviticus was address to the Jews of that time. That's why context is extremely important when using any book. The Leviticus argument is totally inadmissible unless one is a Jew with a time machine

he is cute!!!!!!! no to prop 8

[Pilgrim812]

Not to worry. Prop 8 can not possibly survive legal scrutinty. It will be tossed

out either by the Supreme Court or on the basis legal standing the Prop 8

case (for) is incredibly weak.

@MrJmm999 The Mormon Church claims to be the servants of God. According to their book of scripture, the Book of Mormon, God granteth unto men according to their desire. Why are the servants (the Mormon Church) not doing what the Master (God) does, that is, granteth unto men according to their desire to marry someone of the same gender?
