protect marriage?

[Manda]

Good for you Manda. I am too. There are so many arguments pro and against but it's such discrimination, I can't even believe it. The main thing I am hearing from people on the news is that they aren't against gay people they just don't want their kids to be taught about it in school. I don't recall being taught about marriage anywhere but at CCD.

On my way home I saw people for both sides at the intersection. It's cold, wet and 10:30 at night.

Thanks Let. I voted...No, on Prop 8. I think we need to be more open these days and love is love. I believe love is not just man + woman, it can be found in any sex. Its about personality, friendship, the whole package a person has to offer another. Heterosexuals take marriage for granted, and most homosexual couples have stayed strong and are so deeply in love. Some are even part of churches (my Catholic cousin who claims he was born gay, I believe him), let him marry in the church he grew up in. It isn't hurting anyone, and people need to be more open. Some are born gay/lesbian/transgender-whatever, and some people know they aren't. Who cares? Marriage is a union with two people who LOVE one another. Get over it, I'm over it. I'm glad the gays in my life have slapped some sense into me. No on Prop 8!

I cannot believe we have a black President but G/L's can't get married.

I told you it wasn't going to count.  It doesn't matter if 90% of the people voted yes on prop. 8.  Your vote doesn't count because special interest groups run our government and judges manipulate and make the law.

I can see both sides of the Gay Marrige issue. In my opinion there is no absolute justified answer. People will throw a fit either way.

The United States needs to be a bit more egalitarian. We're so behind.

Honestly, though, I could care less whether the right of homosexual marriage is granted; it's more important to get the rights rather than the title, but most people don't seem to understand that.

That, and I have very cynical views about <i>all</i> state-sanctioned marriage.
