Prop 8 passes in CA

Marriage is to remain between a Man and a Woman in the State of CA. Late last night the results came in with small winning margins. It was a close race.

I find it interesting that BIGOTRY was found on the side of those that supported the NO on 8 campaign. They were intolerant of the YES on 8 campaigners and their fundamental right to choose which way they would vote. I found that the vast majority of intolerance was from the NO on 8 side rather than the YES on 8 side.

I was also completely disgusted in the way that the NO on 8 tried to use the media to mislead people especially about the MORMON church. On the last day of the battle the NO on 8 campaign aired a slanderous commercial misleading people into thinking that the Mormon missionaries would barge into people's homes to take away their rights.

In the end Marriage is left to be between a Man and a Woman for this season.

Yea we win....all of our hard work actually paid off!! I couldnt be happier about it. At least we won something in the election! After all my signs that continually got stolen...I have found it hard the last few days to be tolerant of those kind of people.
