"We have a lot more work to do in our common struggle against bigotry and discrimination. I say 'common struggle' because I believe very strongly that all forms of bigotry and discrimination are equally wrong and should be opposed by right-thinking Americans everywhere. Freedom from discrimination based on sexual orientation is surely a fundamental human right in any great democracy, as much as freedom from racial, religious, gender, or ethnic discrimination."

@Pilgrim812

Yes, all these arguments were made during the trial, and the other side took them apart. Even the ones making them could not defend them in a court room, as they were indefensible.

[chercherchercher]

this people is against gay marriage? why should be care he has probably already died from a heart attack by now. LOL.

[Pilgrim812]

All these arguments were made in the Prop 8 trial, and couldn't stand up under legal

scrutiny.

Moreover, among those who agree with the traditional definition of marriage, 44% said Weprin’s position was a factor in their vote, while 29% of those who disagree said his position was a factor. Voters told the pollster that David Weprin’s position on same-sex marriage was a specific factor in the voting decision of 72% of Orthodox Jews, 29% of Other Jews, 27% of Catholics, 33% of Other Christians, 27% of other/None/DK.

There is a high correlation between a person’s position on marriage and their vote between Turner and Weprin. Those who agree marriage should only be between a man and a woman voted for Turner 81% - 19%. Turner won Orthodox Jews 91% - 9%; Catholics by 72%-28%; Other Christians 53% - 47%. Weprin won among non-Orthodox Jews 69% - 29%; among Other/None/DK 76%-24%.

@YesProp8 you don't have to buy shit, it's out there and no matter how condescendingly you try to spin it so that you're the victim. anyone with any reason can see this is an attack on gay people.. we just want the same rights, not special rights, the same rights.... puhlease....

[YesProp8]

@brigantty Defending yourself? The Supreme Court has had to protect the Yes on Prop 8 side along with the police and the FBI because of what you call defending yourself. I don't buy it.
