For those who are unaware, one of the California propositions that is going to be on the ballot this November is called Proposition 8. In a nutshell, if this proposition is passed, the California constitution will be amended to prevent gay couples from getting married. This right was recently recognized by a California court ruling.

I'm reaching out to people because right now it looks like this proposition actually has a good chance of passing, and because this proposition will have a direct negative impact on my personal rights and future. Regardless of what you might think about deep blue state California, our state politics are terrible and we have just as many hicks and fundamentalist religions as everyone else. If this thing does pass it would essentially take another statewide vote to undo the damage.

If you have even just a few bux you can spare to donate to the campaign, or have family in California you can talk to, please do so. It literally takes one minute to donate if you have a credit card. You don't even have to be a California resident to donate (though I do believe you must be a U.S. citizen, but I'm not sure). If you are a California resident, please go out to vote on election day and help prevent this hateful garbage from passing.

No on 8 campaign site

Just FYI I am not associated with this campaign in any way other than I just gave them some money and felt like trying to solicit some extra help.

hmm well listen marriage is the union between a man and a WOMAN so unless the fags can decide which is the woman between them to get a sex change then they can't marry imo. LOL

But that's just my 2 cent

No gay marriage is only legal in like ONE state I think, they just want to ensure that it isn't legal in their state which is incredibly prejudiced, any way you put it.

Didn't Biden say something like marriage was only between a man and a woman, but he was completely for some sort of legal union which is basically the same thing with a different name? Are you sure this is what you think it is?

Yes he is for Union for homosexuals not marriage, but California passed the ability for homosexuals to marry, and this proposition is to remove their ability to marry. Union is good and all, and it confers the same benefits as marriage pretty much, but to some people it isn't the same thing. (We're lesser because we ain't good enough to be married in them peoples church...)

basically the weird thing is the argument that marriage is basically the same as a civil union actually demeans the meaning of marriage more. it's just saying MARRIAGE IS A LEGAL PROCEDURE W00T. if anything you'd think straight people would get civil unions all the time.

just a DoopzOwnzFact.

Oh I see. If this bill passes, will gay people still have the rights to a civil union in California?

man when did marriage become a legal binding contract granting specific benefits and not a, you know, union between two people in love?  90% of the people in the military marry apathetic phillipino women just so they can get a tax break + extra money + government support and the womenz get american citizenship.

disgusting
