Takedown of NOM's Lies About Prop 8

Over at http://stop8.org, we see a lot of silly claims about Prop 8, but the new radio ad put out by the National Organization for Marriage last week is just out-and-out deceitful. It's packed full of lies and misrepresentations, so we decided to set the record straight, as it were, by going point by point through their bizarre claims and explaining why they are wrong, wrong, wrong.

The way I see it, if you don't want same sex marriage, don't get one. Just don't stop those who do. I'm not gay myself, so I may end up being married to a woman, but I fail to see how it would be affected in any way if 2 guys or 2 girls marry each other. Can't help who you love.

ALL gays enforce hate. ALL Blacks leave their kids and wife and shoot people. ALL Hispanics are illegals who work for 5 bucks a day and live in a crammed home. ALL Arabs are terrorists. ALL Germans are Neo Nazis. ALL Southerners marry 13 year old girls 5 at a time. Im learnin quick, ay Adolf?

Thank you for making this video, I just can't stand how people try to stop people from having the right to marry the same gender. Love is not about a man and a woman being together, love is about being together with whoever you want to be with forever.

Is a Black Judge overseeing a trial of a Black Criminal Bias? It's the same if the Judge is

gay.

Homophobes try to twist things around to make them look like the victim.

It's been a while, but this video is still relevant, as the hate groups are still using many of these arguments. Also, thank you, Matt- for giving equality your compassionate, well-informed, and fearless voice. During this month of murders and sit-ins in my home state of Texas, this video reminds us that the lies are recycled, and already proven false...and that equality is coming. Finally.

I love you forever just for using the word "catty"

Folks that want same sex marriage don't care about the nearly 25 million of us who can't even get a full time job:( Why? Because they have a job so it does not matter to them.
