I re-read what I wrote and I wasn't clear. By "they" I didn't mean all Christians and Mormons. By "they" I meant the Christians and Mormons who voted yes on 8.

Thanks for the clarification.

I wish I could be there to lend a hand with the protest.

Indeed we can't necessarily change the minds of the bigoted. But we have to stay in action to remind the intelligent, open-minded people (and particularly the young ones who are coming into their own - I came from a homophobic family, myself, once upon a time) how important this issue is.

I think I'll attend this one.

I think I will be there. But where the heck do you park?

I'm gonna park at in front of my friend's Apartment just south of Melrose, just east of LaCienega ... only because I know how to get there and it was easy to find parking even for the WeHo Halloween Carnaval.

Want directions?

Not all Christians. Certainly, many. But not all. Look at the faith-based groups on this huge list; even the Catholic Democrats of California are on our side.

We will be at the rally tonight. Our marriage isn't truly valid until yours are.

It disgusts me that people are that way and i am very saddened that people think that they can take away people's constiutional rights to marry who they want to. It's like to me what if someone's kid comes to them saying they are gay? then what? Or is that kid gonna be so homophobic that they stay in the closet affecting their health etc. Sad sad world that we live in. I just can't imagine taking away someone's right. It's discrimination of sorts in a way. Ok i could go on and on but i won't.
