Well, I am witnessing a series of protests regarding uphelding prop 8 in the CA supreme court. I live in downtown SF so it's hard to miss them!
I used to be undecided about this issue. I don't have any personal interest in the issue plus I can't vote anyway, however I want to be as politically active as possible, so I was at least thinking about it. On one hand "no on prop 8" has a set of really good argument. On the other hand "yes on prop 8" commercials around the time of elections were all about "teaching kids to be gay" and "allowing gay people to adopt kids". I dont really mind about the first one, plus it sounds ridiculous anyway. I would guess that prop 8 at worst would mean "teach kids to be whatever they want"...
Allowing homosexuals to adopt however, I dont know. It's a tough call....
However screw it, I think that equal rights are above all the other arguments and I am def supporting prop 8 for the past months. Today the protest did nothing else but reinstating my belief.
I hope that gays will manage to pass a new prop or convince the governor and state to allow once again the gay marriages.
