Hey, I was there too! Support was great! One fellow who drove by gave us the thumbs down and called out, "Call it something else!" To that I say this; 1) Why would you deny someone a fundamental right because of what it's named? 2) We do call it something else, we call it GAY Marriage, unfortunately, just as we still call it INTERRACIAL Marriage, instead of just marriage. *sigh* We've still got some big steps to take before we all have equality.

I think it's funny how people keep saying that Prop 8 is "the will of the people" when it's only the ignorance and intollerance of about half the people. I mean, if 52% of your friends wanted pizza for lunch instead of sandwiches, would you impose pizza on everyone? I should hope not. I support both pizza and sandwiches, people are entitled to eat what they want.

we needed all the help we could have gotten

I think people need to study Con Law more seriously in High School. Why should the majority be allowed to vote on the rights of a significant minority? The answer: they shouldn't, hence the role of the judiciary to interpret the constitution, since the majority has no idea what it says...

Look, I personally have no problem with gay people getting married. If you want to be as miserable as heterosexual married couples, be my fucking guest. But why SPIT on the voting process? Prop 8 WON- PERIOD- because the voters spoke. If you reverse the will of the people, we're not living in a democratic society, are we?
