As you know or may not know, Proposition 8, the anti-gay marriage proposition passed 52% to 48%. Media reports state that minorities, both African American and Hispanics voted for the measure in large numbers. The reasons that have been given for this BIGOTED action range from “I don’t think it’s right”, to “It’s a choice”, to the old stand by of COWARDS that it is “God’s will, way, or just against God.” When you ask most of these so-called Christians to tell you EXACTLY where that is stated in the bible, most of them can’t even tell you. And the reason they can’t tell you is because it doesn’t exist! They say “it’s there” which is quite an ARGUMENT or DEFENSE to be a BIGOT.
If you can’t even say where the passage is in the bible that you HIDE BEHIND, then you are a POOR EXCUSE for a HUMAN BEING. That you would be a part of something so evil, hurtful, hateful, spiteful, DISCRIMNATORY, and BIGOTED, after experiencing the same things yourself is unconscionable. That you would deny spousal benefits to people who have been together for 15, 25, or even 30 years later is wrong, PERIOD! Are you aware of the fact that between June of 2008 and November 3, 2008, there were over 18,000 same sex marriages performed in california? And many of those 18,000 marriages came from people who don’t live in california or even America? And that many of those same sex couples brought family and friends with them when they got married? And those same sex couples, friends, and families stayed in hotels, ate at restaurants, and visited our many tourist destinations? That they needed flowers, limos, wedding cakes, wedding clothing, reception halls, and food, just to name a few things that you DUMBASSES just voted away? The Williams Institute at U.C.L.A. predicts gay men and lesbians will spend $684 million on wedding cakes, photographers, tuxedos, hotel rooms and related wedding trappings during the next three years. The institute estimates the State of california will haul in some $64 million in taxes and another $9 million in marriage license fees. For a state that has the third HIGHEST unemployment rate in America, 8.2% as of this writing, how much of that lost money could have provided jobs and services to our badly needed economy? When the economy goes bad, who are the very first people to feel it? African Americans and Latinos!
So instead of people spending that 757 million dollars in california, same sex couples will go to Massachuttes, Rhode Island, or Connecticut to get married. But those states have real winter seasons that might make people think of warmer climates when thinking of getting married. That is where california had an advantage. Our “winters” are nonexistent when compared to those states. We would have had money flowing into our govermental and business coffers year around. So when your water, gas and light, and trash fees get increased, don’t complain. When the libraries and youth recreation centers are closed, don’t say a word. When you get bopped on the head or have your house broken into, just SHUT the FUCK UP! You helped to create this situation? Gee, I didn’t think of that? I thought I was denying “them” their rights!
For all of you CLOWNS who want to say that a civil union is the same thing, I put this to you. Give up your marriage license and go down and get a civil union license. You won’t do that because you KNOW there is a difference!!!
No on Prop 8
And lastly, for you LOSERS who thought you could contribute money to that DISCRIMNATORY proposition in the dark, you were wrong.
