I don't understand how people can be so ignorant and selfish as to put those "Vote Yes on 8" signs in their yards. Is it not obvious how horrendous this proposition is?Let's play a game: how many negative words can be rhymed with "Proposition 8?"
*Hate
*Discriminate
*Penetrate (that one's for the supporters)
*Deregulate!
Oh, I love that game. A game I don't love is the "let's screw with the constitution and digress 150 years to a time when we, as Americans, actually thought it was okay to value one person's life over another" game. I mean, what the fuck America?! This has gone way past religious sanctity. This is a flagrant discriminatory act fueled by hate and fear.
"Preserve marriage?" Preserve marriage?! I have to wonder how many of these Prop 8 supporters are therapists that pay for their boats and Mercedes from the money they make off of children terrorized by divorce. I'm not sure what kind of "solidarity" these people expect from marriage these days but I would make a guess that same-sex couples who marry are more likely to stay together.
I would hate for any children of these people to fall in love with someone of the same sex. Of course, the fear of being brutalized or turned away by their parents probably solidifies the chance that they will never come out, ultimately leaving them empty, confused, and angry--that's a GREAT future for America.
If you truly love Jesus, can you, with all regard to his teachings, say he would deny someone the right to love someone else openly and honestly?
