Ugh, I'm finding myself having such an angry reaction to the Yes On 8 folks. Today I was in a store and the fvcking KoC ad came played on the radio station that was tuned in. I had an urge to find and smash the radio.
Yesterday I drove past a bunch of people waving Yes On 8 signs, some with pictures of a mom and dad hugging and kissing their sweet innocent child. I sat at a red light across from them for a while, and by the time it turned green and I could pass them, I had to stop myself from rolling down the window and shouting horrible things at them.
Frustratingly, once I got past them and calmed down, all I wanted to do is go back and talk to them reasonably, but I know that I'd just get angry again if I tried and it would not turn out well.
Sigh. I don't respond well to fear and hate.
