This really does not affect me (I am a married straight guy) but I was at dinner last night having, up to then, a calm discussion with my in-laws. Then someone brought up blogging about politics, Prop. 8 came up and it did not get better from there. I was the only person in the room saying how this is nothing more than bigotry and I hope that it fails to pass. There were three people saying that is was important to pass "to protect families". They could not see that by passing such a "law" that they would be essentially reinforcing a 2-tiered society.
I think that this is NOTHING more than a CIVIL RIGHTS issue and the arguments to me sound like the same used in the 60's to keep communities "pure".
Anyone else disgusted by these folks?
