  • 60% of Heterosexuals are married in California, 4% of Gays married when given the chance in California.

    Based on statistics, not the Algayda lies, gays don't want to get married.

    Stop the charades Algayda.

  • Vote Yes on 8! This is about parental rights and religious freedoms.

    Yes on 8

  • Here is a link to an article that explains how gay rights are infringing upon religous freedoms - Google this: When Gay Rights and Religious Liberties Clash by Barbara Bradley Hagerty

    If public schools aren't interested in teaching gay marriage in public schools than why did the California Teacher's Union donate $1.25 Million to No on 8?

    Vote YES on 8. Protect parental rights and religious freedoms.

  • Children's rights are above adult sexual preference. Kids deserve to have a mom AND a dad. Schools are for education, not social experimentation laboratories.

  • There is so much confusion about Prop 8. Civil rights are not being taken away from anyone unless Prop 8 fails. Then the only ones losing rights will be parents and children.

  • What about churches that want to marry gay people? Their religious rights are being compromised.

    What about gay people that want to have a nonreligious weddings at a courthouse like many heterosexual couples do?

    Can you step back for a second and realize you are making brash generalizations and broad strokes about a very varied cultural segment of America that just wants its rights and privileges?

  • Never used to dislike black people, but since they been coming out with that horribly awful and degrading music coupled with the fact that they voted 70% in favor of prop 8, makes me not like too kindly at this generation of african americans. Isn't it ironic that black people were discriminated against merely decades ago. Hipocrits! Where Kramer when you need him.

  • Well it looks like we are going back to the cali Supreme Courts ,,the date has been set, so hold on to your seats every one.

  • One of the things I find very interesting about the Gay and Lesbian movement is that they are to denounce christians as homophobic hypocrites trying to push their beliefs on others. When in actuality if that is the case, Gays and Lesbians are doing the very same thing. You cannot make someone accept your lifestyle, PERIOD!! And what is sad about about Prop8 is that the real mentality of Gays and lesbians has come to the forefront. Forceful confrontation because voters did not agree with them.

  • Fine, we don't need fake individuals piggybacking off of individuals who have TRULY suffered atrocities unimaginable. Everytime I listen to a gay person try and make their point for equal rights, they mention the civil rights movement of African Americans in the 60's. The bottom line is, blacks were strung up and mutilated because of the COLOR of their skin. Not the DECISION to be GAY. You only need to look at the countless numbers of individuals who make a CHOICE to be GAY. Blacks R born black!

  • I have always been a very strong advocate for human rights. I am also pro-family. Family is the backbone of the society. Shutting out 10% of the population from the institution of family is discriminatory and unhealthy for society. Being pro-family means accepting diverse families, not promoting elitist rhetoric that only favours one group.

  • [continued] If there is a gay gene or a definitive way to tell if someone was born gay I hope it is found very soon. I believe then we could test people and let them know if they are actually gay or not. Then we would know if people civil rights are truly being violated and who else is just along for the ride. I truly believe people like the author don't want that because it would truly undermine their overall campaign.

  • Gay rights are not civil rights. Gay rights have piggy-backed the efforts of civil rights long enough. This article once again displays the wolf in sheeps clothing tactics of some gay activist by highlighting the civil right struggles of a genus group of people and try make their grievances (the genus group) similar to their own(homosexuals.) Regardless of what is said, there is NO GAY GENE and no definitive proof that people are born that way. [continued]

  • Dee Garret make me want to vommit. I WILL NEVER DEFEND AFRICAN AMERICANS AGAIN!!! Your on your own from now on.
