ITP: METAL AND SOCIAL JUSTICE: Gay Marriage Ban Upheld in California
LEGALIZING BIGOTRY AND HATRED:(EDITORS NOTE): This just in, California state supreme court has upheld a voter approved ban on gay marriage. We think this will be a political volley ball for some time, sad day, but many have faith. From what we've heard, many religious, right wing fanatics (ProtectMarriage.com whom are also pro lifers or anti abortionists, mormons) put alot of money (20 MILLION dollars) into lobbying the California state government into banning same sex gender marriages. The U.S.A. was founded on the ideals of a separation of church and state. It feels like the 1950's all over again, as many are looking to extend constitutional rights to include same sex gender marriages, which will perhaps be up to individual states in the U.S.A. The ban on gay marriages is unfortunate, as the gay community out west needs to organize and lobby.Lots of protests and lots of arrests have happened (out west) during the last few days, and I smell the stench of homophobia all the way in New Paltz, NY (watch your fucking mouth).Most homophobes are repressed, religious fanatics or people whom have been sexually abused, unwillingly and in essence have become the abused to the abuser.Why would anyone hate two same sex consenting adults whom love one other? However, the U.S.A. Is a democracy, and people have the right to amend their constitution.
The good news is: The gay couples whom got married during the "stay" against the ban on same sex weddings last year, can stay wed. In New York, we are with you in supporting same sex marriages, and we WON'T BACK DOWN..
