The Bigot Brigade is on the Attack in AZ Too.
Arizona’s Proposition 102 could enshrine anti-gay bigotry in their constitution by making same-sex marriage illegal. Of course the voters already turned down such an amendment before, but the bigots (the “let the voters decide” types) decided they didn’t like what the voters had decided. So it’s back on the ballot so they have another chance to show gay people just how not-equal they are. I highly suspect we’ll be facing the same nonsense here in CA if Proposition 8 is defeated. The bigots will insist on “letting the voters” decide every two years because they just didn’t get the answer they wanted.
My lovely wife has the story on how the Mormons are pouring hoards of cash into the Yes on 102 campaign (much like they’re spending vast amounts of money to support Proposition 8).
We need to fight bigotry everywhere. Furthermore it would be hypocritical for us to make pleas for support in our fight against Proposition 8 and do nothing for others. Accordingly we each just donated $102 to the Vote No on Prop 102 campaign. It’s not the tens of thousands the rich and powerful Mormons are donating in support of it, but we hope it will help.
