:D

The CNN article has this quote from Cardinal Mahoney:

Proposition 8 is not against any group in our society.
Hello??? WTF???

Maybe by 'our society' she meant the Mormon church.

That's because gays are not part of society, because we're deviant sub-human perverts.

Well, at least we're in fabulous company :D

...and we have great asses.

LOL !

I'm not gay, but I'm certainly a deviant sub-human pervert.

Any LoTters in Chicago?

Quote:

CHICAGO - Focus on the Family's James Dobson spent $800,000 on Proposition 8 to stop gay people form marrying in California. Tonight, this dangerous ideologue will be inducted into the Museum of Broadcast Communication's Radio Hall of Fame in Chicago.

He will be met with a protest from outraged gay organizations at 5:30 PM this evening, November 8, outside of the Renaissance Chicago Hotel, 1 W. Wacker Drive (corner of Wacker & State).

Focus on the Family? More like Feces on the Family...

So here's the magic key to avoid being arrested at a street march, get on the sidewalk and keep walking. The get back into the street. That's what I did last night after splitting off from the LoT lot, stayed with the march for another hour a half. Also, a good idea to thank every cop you come in contact with for keeping us safe. I even thanked the lined up riot police, some of them actually returned the compliment with a smile.

This morning's protest at The Mormon Temple was very low-key. Perhaps 25 of us there.

Still ... the site seems more relevant to me than any other location so far. There's lots of street traffic with tons of honking supporters (missing completely from my own experience of Long Beach last night) ... and not only our presence, but every honk is a sign of community protest against the despicable, scurulous methods of the Mormon Church ... my sworn enemy.


Oh well, off to Silver Lake. But I hope for many more protests at the Temple. And seeing as I live relatively nearby ... I think I might make a habit of going there every Sunday morning for a while. :D

Did the rally tonight, and the first part of the march. I was wearing the wrong shoes because of that opera thing I had to go to (turns out, I am not an opera buff) and was just too wiped out from the last 3 days to really commit to the full march. There was a spectacular marching band in the crowd, and a group of Indian dancers. Best march ever!
