Does anyone know the process for filing it?

No clue on this end.



Wish I'd had a camera tonight, there were some great signs.

A couple were about Separate Drinking Fountains for Gays ... one with great illustrations.

A really cute one with a picture of Sesame Street's Bert and Ernie emblazoned with the banner "Gay Love."

I think my fave was "My Pedophile Priest Supports Traditional Marriage."


Thanks to Ghoulish Delight, the one I carried - "What Does My Marriage Have To Do With Yours?" was a big hit ... but I have to wonder if it didn't make one too many cute single gay guy think I was married. Uh-oh.


I think I had the most fun in the first hour when we were all standing halfway in the street on all four corners of the Santa Monica / San Vicente intersection, waving hundreds of signs and chanting cool slogans ... and getting fantastic honk support from passing cars and busses. It was really high energy, fun and awesome.


After a while though, the crowd ended up taking over the entire intersection and stopping traffic on Santa Monica Boulevard ... which was kinda fun for a moment ... but stopped all the fun traffic flow, and undoubtedly turned driver support to driver upset.


Afterwards, we all wandered down San Vicente to the main program and listened to some inspiring and some not-so-inspiring speakers/

I got the feeling they were trying mostly to molify the crowd. And I didn't feel like thanking all the people for their hard work in a failure political campaign. And I didn't much feel like hearing this was just another step in the long march toward civil rights ... even though of course that's what it is.


But it was certainly nice to be among the like-minded crowd, at once warm-hearted and passionate, kind and angry. Very specially nice to be among some of my subscriber friends, and so touching to have Heidi and Tom there to lend their wonderful support. I am so moved.


Thank you all for you kind and wonderful support on this important human rights issue. The LoT of You are a Lot of Good.

I have to remember that you say shiat like this when I see you in person. WTF is wrong with you?


Done. With. You.

Well, the lawyer was wrong because Thurgood Marshall wasn't on the Supreme Court that eliminated separate but equal. He litigated those cases.

I don't think it's an ex post facto law any more than the Defense of Marriage Act was. It doesn't punish. More to the point, it tells the government how to act going forward. Jerry Brown has said that he will defend the marriages already enacted, and he will defend the law as well. If he can pull off this trick, then I suppose married gay couples could go to Massachusetts or some other friendly place and not have to get married again to be considered married.

As to black support for Proposition 8, why should we be surprised? Pick your oppressed group. The experience of racism has never automatically caused sweeping empathy for other cultural groups that experienced racism, nor has it caused groups to wake up and challenge the sexism in their own cultures.

Blacks on the whole seem to be more religious than whites in this country. And why not? God's certainly earned their loyalty, you ask me. And yes, generally speaking, they are over-the-top homophobes. When pressed about the homosexuality thing, they use words like 'faith' and 'sin'.


I've been doing a slow burn on this Prop 8 crap. Thinking about what it means...to the Gay and to the rest of us. And I've reached a conclusion:


Fvck them. Fvck every one that would lift a finger to deny rights. Fvck every white, black, and green "Christian" who insists on bossing me around with their bible. Fvck every single one of them who had their child out in the rain, waving signs at passing motorists. These people wouldn't understand compassion and grace even if they were fvcked in the earhole with their beloved Bible by Jesus Christ himself.

Yeah, fvck them.

The protest made the news scroller on Good Morning America today.

Can I just say how proud I am that while it sucks major arse that 8 passed, my little no name county said NO to 8 and as of this morning is the ONLY county that will issue same sex marriage licenses until orders from the state to cease are issued. Our county clerk did admit that there might be a question on the validity of the marriages performed today but that until he was DIRECTED by the state to cease and desist he would issue licenses to any who applied. It doesn't help the over all situation but it does make me feel that our efforts to say No to 8 were successful locally if not statewide.

I'm angry, that's what's wrong with me.

Don't tell me that wouldn't have been a Mormon epithet on your roomie's sign last night if there was such a thing for the Mormons.


There was a lot of anger last night, and just like I told that woman who got pissed at Cherny's sign ... the hurt is fresh and the anger will fade. It's inappropriate, and I know that ... yet I feel it right now. Very strongly last night. 70%. Fvcking hater hypocrits.

Yeah, those blacks who voted Yes suck. I know 30% of them do not.

Those Mormons who voted Yes suck, and I know perhaps 3% of them do not.

Broad brush? Yep. Nasty names? Yeah, faggot, you got a problem wit dat?

I don't care how pissed you are Steve. This line is inexcusable. Fvck off Steve.

I had to give him my first negative mojo ever for that one.

Dude - I know you're pissed but come on now. :rolleyes: 2 wrongs don't make a right and all that.
