i wish the protest rally i attended was more like that. i was in west hollywood, where i work, and the tone was mostly angry, too hurt to be eloquent, speakers too angry to avoid contradicting themselves, with some in the crowd near me saying some pretty horrible shit about fellow human beings ("let's hang the mormons" came from a guy around my age). i was afraid of that ruining the goodness of the movement against this dumb law. which, that night, it did for me. but i think gay marriage will be legally recognized again soon; the california attorney general is pushing for the supreme court to hear the lawsuits and quickly, though he has to defend the opposite side he supports because of his elected position with the state. it's all a giant waste of money and i don't understand how anyone can vote to ban marriage between two people, as it has no adverse effect on...anything.
