‘Day Without a Gay’ participation spotty

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – A daylong work stoppage for which people were encouraged to call in “gay” to express support for same-sex marriage drew spotty participation Wednesday, with some gay rights activists praising the event and others questioning its value.

People who opted to take the day off from their jobs as part of the national “Day Without a Gay” were encouraged to perform community service, and charitable organizations across the country said they had volunteers showing up.

“Visibility is really important for the gay community, so after a lot of thought I decided I would come out and be visible with my colleagues at work and use the time working for the community,” said Carrie Lewis, 36, a University of California health researcher who spent the day working at the Sacramento Gay and Lesbian Center.

The protest, which a gay couple from West Hollywood organized through the Internet, was designed to demonstrate the economic clout of same-sex marriage supporters following the passage of voter-approved gay marriage bans in California, Arizona and Florida last month.


So now maybe we should call in straight? Across the nation, every heterosexual person in America call in sick, then all the faggots can run around shaking their hands and prancing on their tip toes screaming “Oh my Gosh”…

Personally, if I was a business owner, (other than a damn starbucks or showtune radio station) I’d fire the pipe smokers tomorrow morning. This would be called “Fire a GAY DAY” or better yet “Pink slips for the PINK FLIPS” Either way, there would be some more unemployed faggots that can protest all over the state, all day everyday.

The only thing this accomplished was to show those of us that voted FOR PROP 8 that we did the right thing.. Bunch of fucking queers, They should be banished to a damn Island somewhere and used for target practice…

Freaks on the Street, angry about Gay Marriage vote result.

Freaks on the Street, angry about Gay Marriage vote result.

So if you and your family are out and about Saturday, beware of the planned protests across the state of California and elsewhere. The FREAKS are trying to tie the Marriage Definition to civil rights and they are reaching at straws. The FREAKS are trying to blur the lines between right and wrong in order to make themselves seem NORMAL.

Gay-marriage supporters plan Prop-8 protests

SAN FRANCISCO — Thousands of gay-marriage supporters plan to take to the streets Saturday to protest gay-marriage bans in California, Arizona and Florida.

Protesters are focusing on California, where the state Supreme Court declared same-sex marriages legal in May before voters tossed them out Nov. 4.

California’s Proposition 8, which passed 52.2% to 47.8%, “eliminates (the) right of same-sex couples to marry.”

Proponents of same-sex marriage say its passage has only energized the gay rights movement. Activists are using a grass-roots network of websites, e-mails and text messages to coordinate protests in about 300 cities — from Fayetteville, Ark., to Omaha.

This narrow loss has awakened Godzilla,” says Fred Karger of Los Angeles, who runs the website Californians Against Hate (http://californiansagainsthate.com). “I think this loss in California … is the greatest thing that could have happened” because it spurred activism in the gay-marriage movement.

(“Narrow loss”=same margin Obama beat McCain 52% to 48%)

The FREAKS are going to show a “Folsom Street Fair” atmosphere everywhere they go, and personally I find this offensive. At some point the actions of the FREAKS will cause a serious counter action, and in typical FREAK fashion, they will blame it on intolerance. I am INTOLERANT of the FREAKS. HOWEVER if Prop 8 failed, I would not be beating up little old ladies and disrupting every day life because of it…. FREAKS!

Gays and Lesbians… SUCK IT UP! YOU LOST!

Gays and Lesbians… SUCK IT UP! YOU LOST!

The fags and Lezzies are all in a tizzy over their perception of a loss of rights. They did not lose rights, they didn’t ever have the right to marry in the eyes of GOD. They didn’t have the right to teach my kids that man on man or woman on woman marriage was an acceptable practice. They did not nor do they have the right to force their sexual urges on me or mine, they do not nor did they ever have the right to teach the gay and lesbian agenda in public schools.

The perception that this is a “CIVIL RIGHTS” issue is FALSE! The gay and lesbian issue is a SEX issue, it is not a COLOR issue.

Those of us on the RIGHT side of this are in big trouble, here is why:

Gay marriage ban foes take fight to the courts

SACRAMENTO – California’s nationally watched battle over same-sex marriage shifted yesterday from the voting booth right back to where it started: the courts.

Voters on Tuesday backed Proposition 8, which overturns a state Supreme Court ruling in May giving gays the right to marry, and opponents of the initiative wasted no time mounting legal challenges.

Bill Araiza, a law professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles, did not offer opponents much encouragement as they head to court.

“At the end of the day, it is the people who determine what their constitution looks like,” Araiza said. “The idea that people are disabled from making changes to their own constitution is a hard argument to make to a judge.”

Proposition 8 drew more than 52 percent of the vote Tuesday, but opponents of the constitutional amendment yesterday were clinging to the hope that as many as 3 million uncounted ballots could swing the results their way.

State Attorney General Jerry Brown, who said he supports making same-sex marriage legal, nevertheless announced yesterday that he will take Proposition 8’s side in court.

“We will defend the law as enacted by the people. . . . We have that responsibility,” Brown said.

So what we have is a battle looming in the courts to overturn the will of the people, and we have a LAWYER, who DOESN’T support the ban defending it. :fingerwag:

I say we petition to remove Jerry Brown from the proceedings. I want someone who believes the ban is legal and who is going to represent the PEOPLE!

REMOVE JERRY BROWN!!!!

Here is some knowledge on Jerry Brown…. HE WROTE PROP 8.

Prop. 8 asks voters to affirm that “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California” – a concept that voters overwhelmingly backed when they approved Proposition 22 in 2000.

Voters still favor the traditional definition of marriage, 49 to 47 percent, according to the most recent Public Policy Institute of California poll.

However, in the wake of the state Supreme Court decision in May legalizing same-sex marriage, Brown worded Prop. 8’s ballot description to specify that it “eliminates the right of same-sex couples to marry.”

The proponents’ original title for Prop. 8 was “Limit on Marriage.” What voters see on their ballot pamphlet, thanks to Brown, is, “Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry.”

Prop. 8 supporters accused Brown of playing politics and went to court.

They lost. The new language went on the ballot, and pollsters said support for the ban dropped by eight points – with the most recent PPIC survey showing 52 percent of likely voters now opposing the ban.

“It all depends on how you ask the question,” said Sacramento pollster Jim Moore of J. Moore Methods.

“When you ask people what they believe, you get one answer,” he said. “But when you ask someone to take away something from somebody else, it seems unfair.”

Field Institute pollster Mark DiCamillo agreed, noting that when his outfit tested the two wordings in September, support for Prop. 8 was three points lower on Brown’s version than the original.

As the state’s top law enforcer, Brown has taken no official position on Prop. 8.

But it’s interesting to note that he joined fellow Democratic gubernatorial hopefuls San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Lt. Gov. John Garamendi at a Hollywood fundraiser for the No on 8 campaign last week.

So do we want the friend of “LIKE IT OR NOT, ITS COMING” Gavin Newsom and Antonio “I’ll say anything to keep my corrupt administration working in LA” Villaraigosa to be defending the vast majority of Californians that saw through the “Trip wire” He wrote in to the measure?

Just a reminder of WHO Gavin Newsom is: He is the mayor of San Francisco, HE is the “Like it or NOT” guy.. Just after the California Supreme Court overturned 61% of the peoples will he gave a speech:

NEWSOM is a Dip shit, a liberal idiot and an in your face faggot. BUT he has NO power anywhere other than faggot infested San Francisco.

Jerry Brown is a liberal hack, he’s a lawyer with EXTREME left views and HE has power over the Entire STATE!

In 2000, 61% of California voters approved a ballot measure, Proposition 22, that said “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and recognized in California.”

It was overturned and I assume the California STATE Attorney had something to do with it, and if he WROTE prop 8, he knew it might pass, you can bet he threw some verbiage in there that can be exploited.

JERRY BROWN wrote the “FIXED” Prop 8…. This is the results of 2008.

GREEN SECTION NOTES YES MAJORITY!

To the faggots and Lezzies that are continuing the protests… I understand your anger, your rage your hurt feelings.. WE have been having those emotions for a LONG Time… But tell me when we blocked traffic, made OUR issue impact the general populations day to day life? We didn’t block freeways, or take over streets…WE fixed it the right way, we voted on it… and WON by an overwhealiming majority. SO NOW YOU NEED TO STFU!

Proposition 8 LOSERS! and Obama’s Presser…What a JOKE!

Proposition 8 LOSERS! and Obama’s Presser…What a JOKE!

The Obama presser was a joke, and if that’s the type of “Transparency” in Government that Obama will bring WE ARE SCREWED!

Obama: ‘We have to act swiftly’ on economy

(CNN) — In his first public remarks since delivering his victory speech three days ago, President-elect Barack Obama vowed Friday that restoring the nation’s economic equilibrium will be a priority of his administration.

“I do not underestimate the enormity of the task that lies ahead,” Obama told reporters at the Hilton Hotel in Chicago, Illinois. “We have taken some major action to date, and we will take further action.”

Obama said that passing a stimulus package will be his first move if the lame-duck Congress fails to do so before he takes office January 20.

“It’s not going to be easy for us to dig ourselves out of the hole that we’re in,” he said, flanked by Vice President-elect Joe Biden and members of his transition economic advisory board.

Journalists on all networks got called on to ask questions of the “ONE”- well, EXCEPT Fox News journalists who were not fainting at the sight of “THE ONE”.

Nedra Pickler (AP), Lee Cowan (NBC), Jake Tapper (ABC), Chip Reid (CBS), Karen Bohan (Reuters), John McCormick (Chicago Tribune), Lynn Sweet (Chicago Sun-Times), Candy Crowley (CNN), Jeff Zeleny (New York Times).

Which network didn’t get a question? Fox News.

At the “Presser” Obama fielded such tough questions as “What kind of dog will you get” WTF?

Obama insults the wife of one of our nations BEST presidents, then talks about his dog pick? I hope you idiots that voted for him are ready for the wool to be pulled over your eyes.

Here’s a quote from the “Messiah” that you will just love:

Obama said he would be reviewing a letter from Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, congratulating him on his election, and would “respond appropriately.”

I am guessing the “Appropriate” response will include a wet kiss on the cheek and quite possibly a concession and an apology for bad America. “SORRY we dared stand up for ourselves against Muzzie fanatics abroad” Not to mention a promise that he will get oil and gas prices up again.

Oh yeah glad we got a real LEADER now… :rollingeyes:

And then there is the local post election issues. PROP 8 Passed in California, so even though they got Obama, they are still not happy….

Protests Over Gay-Marriage Ban Escalate in California

Angry gay rights activists in California continue to protest the Election Day passage of Proposition 8, which amended the state constitution to restrict marriage to between a man and a woman.

A diverse coalition of social and religious conservatives campaigned to overrule a state Supreme Court judgment six months ago that legalized same-sex marriage and saw 18,000 gay and lesbian couples marry in the Golden State.

Ballot initiatives to illegalize gay marriage also passed in Florida and Arizona on Tuesday.

Supporters of same-sex marriage are aiming their wrath at the Mormon church, which raised $20 million of the overall $75 million that was spent to promote the California initiative.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints also encouraged its members to volunteer their time for the campaign.

“The vote’s been passed and we’re happy with that result, obviously,” said Kui Gomez, a member of the Mormon church. “And you gotta remember it wasn’t just the Mormon church that donated money. Evangelicals, the Jewish synagogues, Catholic churches” also contributed, Gomez said.

A group of protestors plans to rally Friday in front of the headquarters of the Mormon church in Salt Lake City. Protestors demonstrated Thursday outside a Mormon temple in Los Angeles. About 1,000 gay-marriage supporters waved signs and brought afternoon traffic to a halt.

I got a little tip for you idiots.. The people of California have spoke AGAIN!

We said “Marriage is between one man and one woman” PERIOD!-AGAIN!! Just like we did a couple of years ago, and then YOUR liberal judges overturned the will of the PEOPLE.
There were no “Fraud” allegations, NO CHEATING in the votes.. it is OVER! QUIT YOUR FUCKING WHINING!

As your favorite GAY mayor of San Francisco like to say “LIKE IT OR NOT!” IT’S OVER!
IF you keep protesting and taking to the streets, you just might make some lawyer think he has a case, let me tell ALL of you PRO-GAY agenda idiots something:
IF this gets over turned in the courts, after over 3 million MORE Californians voted FOR Prop 8 than voted against it, your piss ant protest are going to pail in comparison to the insurrection that will occur. Our nation is on sitting on a powder keg right now, and the WRONG folks are holding the fuse. You know the ones, the folks that spend time shooting things for food rather than sitting in Starbucks talking about their trip to the spa.

Take a step back you gay and lesbian fucknozzles…LOOK at what has happened in this election

You got OBAMA, WE got Prop 8.. I tell you what, Get Obama to resign, and We’ll give you Prop 8! You would never go for that, YOU faggots want it all, eventually you will push to far and there will be some serious push back… And if you are thinking that last line is of a sexual nature YOU need help! :sadblinkingeye:

The sad part is: Biden and Obama both said they believe marriage is between a man and a woman, yet they are all happy about Obama winning.. Next time faggots, get Mr/Mrs Newsome to run for POTUS!

This is a stand that the NATION is paying attention too. Now that Pelosi, Reid and Obama are running things WE NEEDED THIS VICTORY! We needed a line in the sand that we held…

Thank you CALIFORNIA FOR HOLDING THE LINE!
