Map of Donors to "Yes on 8"

wow that was something. My Cat and dog vet hospital donated or at least one of the Dr. to Yes on 8. ''

My vets are bigots, that is shocking! I do like going there for the animals tho.

Soleil,

"Create your own institution and tradition" sure sounds a lot like the "seperate but equal" policy of the Jim Crow laws. Your right to get married and all that is not at all impeded by complete strangers.

No one argues with that.
But when letters are sent to employers to have someone fired because they gave $100 to a cause they believe in, it is a completely different level.

These Google black lists are not about companies but mostly about individuals.

You are missing the point.

Companies do not vote, people do. The intimidation and the reprisal spirit behind these black lists is to silence voters duiring future votes.

No on 8 got so much corporate donations, much more than from individuals.

In a free country, people get to boycott whomever they want to boycott. If businesses want to work overtime to offend any group, then, they shouldn't be surprised if that group takes its money elsewhere.

This applies to all groups. If Arabs don't want to do business with Israel or all the Western countries that have large Jewish populations, then, let them boycott Israel and all the Western nations. Let them buy all their high-tech and industrial equipment from fellow Arab nations, which I assume will supply them with the very best.

If radical, right-wing, Fundamentalist Christians do not like companies that support human rights, let them boycott Campbell's soup, not take their children to Disneyworld and never use Google again. That is their right.

I think its fair to have this list of those business's that supported Yes on 8, so that people who voted No on 8 don't have to give them business.

As for "redefining marriage":

Isn't it true that before the Reformation in England, only a Catholic priest could perform a legal marriage, and it was Henry VIII who challenged the Catholic church regarding divorce, which had been illegal?

Martin Luther even said that marriage is "a worldly thing... that belongs to the realm of government."

We've been gradually altering marriage for centuries (thankfully)!

They are obviously ashamed other wise they would attempt to put their face publicly along with the ads they back. And look up the definition of civil rights before you try to TELL other people your opinion instead of voice it.

Marriage has been tweaked throughout American history. Remember that initially it was illegal for interracial couples to marry.

Also, how would allowing gay marriage redefine marriage as a whole for others? It's not like straight couples could not get married if gay marriage was allowed. Actually it's proponents of Prop 8 who are defining marriage for everybody else by deciding who can and can't get married despite the fact that it has no barring on their lives. People in glass houses really shouldn't throw stones.

Oh and here's the dictionary's definition of Civil Rights

noun

right or rights belonging to a person by reason of citizenship including especially the fundamental freedoms and privileges guaranteed by the 13th and 14th amendments and subsequent acts of Congress including the right to legal and social and economic equality.

This by default would make gay marriage a civil right.

This people are not ashamed. Why should they ?

Gay marriage is not a civil right to begin with. Create your own institution and tradition. You do not have a right to redefine marriage for other people

Who do you think you are ? Are you so superior to the rest of thre world ?

Anyone looking down upon this and calling it a "blacklist/hit-list" needs to step back and realize something:

These people are not being called out for merely having a different opinion or belief. They are being called out because they contributed to an unconstitutional, corrupt, and deliberate effort in eliminating a specific group of people's rights. No one should have the ability to do this. Attempting to do so is suppose to be illegal; thus, it's only fair that they are now suffering some backlash.

You cannot overstep your boundaries and force a group of people to be upheld to your religious standards and then attempt to retreat back into anonymity in order to escape accountability.

If these people are ashamed of their bigotry, then they should try being decent human beings.

although yes, this is pretty sketchy slash not ok to vaguely and ominously threaten people because they supported something they believed in.

Wow. There is something very disturbing in your choice of words...

"Have fun browsing your neighborhood enemies of equality"

Reminds me of a hit list. Scary.

Tom Hanks thinks Mormons are Un-American too.

I think you should use yellow stars on the map. Then you can round up everybody who want to protect marriage and open a concentration camp.

You guys are getting sicker by the day.

You are bringing this country down the toilet with you
