That's about what it looked like.

You've never seen that? Maybe it is a So Cal thing as I have seen this type for years.

Yes, it is basically several planes (five it looks like in this case) flying together putting out puffs of smoke in synchronization.

Honestly, it has probably been years since I've seen skywriting of any type and that was at Disneyland and it was the traditional write it out type.

Outside of LA I've probably seen skywriting used maybe a half dozen times in my life.

Yeah, amazing how all that money can go into good things like hurting the faggots, rather than stuff like education, or feeding the homeless. Some of these bastards put their LIFE SAVINGS into hurting the fvcking queers, it means that much to them. It isn't that just some people hate you, it's that so goddamn MANY people hate you because of something that doesn't affect them.

It is really difficult not to hate them back, because right know I really, really do. I'm absolutely seething.

I hear you. I was already to the edge before today, and after the biggest in-your-face display of bigotry that I've ever witnessed, I'm now over that edge.

Better than that, it's a dot matrix printer out the back of several planes at once. It's pretty astounding to watch, when it's not spewing hate.

They were there still this morning, but when I returned home from work, they were gone. Had they not been gone, I would have removed them. Yes, it would have been illegal, but I would have done it anyways.

But someone beat me to it.

On a personal front ... things are heating up among another group of friends of mine that includes a few ... ahem ... MORMONS.

This could get ugly. I hope and pray things turn out ok tomorrow.

I'm sending people messages to see if they will (for just tonight and tomorrow) change their Profile Pictures to this:

I figured it's worth a shot. Everyone sees the Profile Pic. It goes everywhere.

Visibility! United front! No on 8!

Done
