Just like many within the LGBT community and our allies my heart broke and I cried when prop. 8 passed. It was passed with lies and a very mailicious campaign that creates more hate, ignorance and reinforces my idea that church and state need to be separate. The Yes on 8 people have kept their promise and sunk to a whole new low by making families get divorced, oh and I forgot to mention the infamous Ken Starr is behind the lawsuit (YES! THE Ken Starr). Marriage is marriage however you see it because at the end of the day it's just two people sharing a journey together. This is a project to show that these aren't strangers you are divorcing they are brothers, sisters, cousins, and entire families. Join me as we tell California, "don't divorce us"...

A religious group trying to support proposition 8 in California found itself the target of outrage in San Francisco's Castro district this past friday night.
Members of the gay community said that almost every Friday night, a Christian group meets at the corner of Castro and 18th Streets, in the heart of the city's gayest neighborhood. They try to convert gays and lesbians into a straight lifestyle.
Members of the gay community insisted that their reaction to the Christian group was spontaneous. It was not an organized thing. We're tired of it. It's not religious. It's not a racial thing. It's about hate. We're trying to send a message across the world that we're standing up and we don't want this to go on anymore said Adam Quintero. Some demonstrators told KTVU (Fox channel 2) that they are planning on more than protests. They say they plan to break away and carry out acts of civil disobedience.
San Francisco Police officers in riot gear formed a line and escorted the religious group into a van to safely get them out of the area.
Is this action necessary for gays to have equal rights, or the same their opponents to suppress those same rights? If the religious radicals have won the temporary battle, for votes? Then why has this Discrimination not been met with harsher backlash? Why if this discrimination (against gays) is to legally to occur is it that gays are fiscally required to contribute yet civically remain a second class citizen?A religious group trying to support proposition 8 in California found itself the... more
