No problemo! I even posted this bulletin on Myspace:

Everyone should be able to choose who they marry. Period.

We still watch video footage today of the moment in the Civil Rights Movement when Governor Orval Faubus deployed the Arkansas National Guard to support segregationists on September 4, 1957 in blocking 9 black students from being allowed to enter Central High School. The sight of a line of soldiers blocking black students from attending high school made national headlines and is a badge of shame for every entity involved in that act of bigotry against young black Americans. Don't shame California by codifying this embarrassingly bigoted moment onto our History. Please vote No on Prop 8.

NO on 8! NO on 8! d_mon_chick November 4 2008, 06:28:13 UTC
Hun, if I could vote more than once, I would. My house of voter eligibles are all voting no on 8.

Today I had to wade through a group of icky 8 supporters on my way to lunch. I work near Steven's Creek and De Anza intersection and it is a popular place to demonstrate. Yesterday and today the "h"8-ers were there. Yesterday Rick and I yelled No on 8! as we biked past them. Today I noticed a guy on the opposite corner was waving a sign that said "I <3 Hate"...clearly describing those bastards supporting prop 8. I cheered the effort..unfortunately when I walked back from lunch that person was no longer "demonstrating", he was being interviewed by a police officer. I don't know what happened but clearly something happened to end his participation in the demonstration.

But you should know that there were lots of No on 8 demonstrators there last week and I saw lots of people yelling No on 8 at them as they drove by.

NO on 8!
