NO ON H8TE!
as if it weren’t embarrassing enough to be from the state represented by “the governator’, california is on the verge of making the biggest shit-stain mistake of all time.
for the record, i still clutch tightly to my psuedo-anarchist circus freakshow idealism, and i am still very much convinced we’re all gonna be on fire or on another planet in the next 4 years or so. but i like obama, and i like super fast trains leaving of los angeles, and i think porky pig should be able to lean over and scratch his ass one more time before he ends up in my breakfast burrito.
californians have a whole pile of bullshit to sift through today. but at some point, theyre going to scroll down their ballot, and have to make a very personal, heart-felt decision for themselves; do i believe in civil rights? do i believe in love? do i believe that we are a collective consciousness of energy that has every ability to think, and feel, and share with whomever we please? or, do i believe we were put here by a vengeful, homophobic god for the purpose of installing hate and discrimination into our local government and protecting our children from the morally terroristic images of two people loving each other.
it’s a real melon scratcher. and somehow, still has a significant amount of voters on the fence. both campaigns are treading lightly in swaying the undecided. the proposition advocates think homos are just swell, they just don’t want their children to know about them until after theyre old enough to get knocked up or addicted to meth. and rather than disregard the lies, and rhetoric, and call to semantics, the opposition acknowledges their concerns with promises to stay away from the children and keep their frutiy agenda out of the schools.
so here’s my plea: to all the undecided voters of california, who at some point between the civil rights movement and now, have had your heads shoved so far up your asses that you cannot recognize when an entire group of people, (your coworkers, your friends, your family) are being told that they are different than, less than, not as important as another group of people, it’s time to take a look around and reevaluate the society and country you live in. proposition 8 is an attack. it is written, funded, and fueled by notorious fundamentalist lunatics who prey on your children, your livelihood, and your most inner fears to gain status, power, and money.
i attended a very heated rally in citrus heights the other nite. desperately looking for a debate worth engaging in. but aside from having my life threatened, twice, all i heard was “faggot.. fuck you.. you’re going to hell.. read the bible..”, etc.
the ‘no on 8′ people, who have worked tirelessly, would prefer we wouldnt use words like “hate” to describe the antics of this proposition. it’s abrasiveness may scare off potential voters. but i refuse to call it anything else. and i refuse to stand by while people who sing songs to the sky attempt to indoctrinate it into the laws of my home.
if prop 8 fails today, you can put your head back up your ass, and be the moronic, hateful, homophobic piece of shit you were yesterday. nobody will ever take that away from you. but should it pass, you’ve taken away so much from so many people. shame on you.

NO ON H8TE!
The U.S. government crossed a VERY serious line with PROP 8.
This “proposition” threatened children’s sense of safety and belongingness in California. Children’s safety.
Regardless of THIS particular fight, there are way too many fights on way too many fronts for us to conquer piecemeal. The Time is Now – DRAW A NEW LINE in the sand and demand from President Obama and our representatives FULL EQUALITY.
Equality Is Simple When You Simply Include Everybody.
What? Not detailed enough for the lawyers?
OK, we can list repealing DOMA, repealing DADT, include transgender in the ENDA Bill, allow adoption of abandoned children, equality in immigration
issues, recognize our hate crimes as such, equal family/children rights……….whew! See what I mean?
We are EQUAL SOULS in HUMAN BODIES. Could we please STOP discriminating due to the genitalia attached? Plumbing will determine each civil right?! Any separation from the pack is ultimately due to gender (and/or gender roles & stereotyping), and that is SEXISM. I cannot marry Bob because I am the “wrong” gender; if I were a woman I could marry Bob. SEXISM.
And I cannot stress ENOUGH how my own suffering from Marriage Inequality is NOT the reason for wanting or needing equality. I am not something to focus on. But my story, and the stories of countless other Americans desperately need to be addressed in this civil rights struggle. Marriage laws were put in place many years ago in order to PROTECT individuals and their FAMILIES; if they were NOT necessary they would not exist (for heterosexuals). When these laws are NOT in place for ALL OF US, horrible, horrible suffering occurs. My WEBSITE has many examples.
So Americans want to continue denying us what they have already deemed as essential. And many people want us to WAIT…2….5……10…….20……..30 YEARS, depending on the “civil right”, for what WAS and IS our birthright.
I personally have a HUGE problem with that. I cannot wait. I will not wait.
Will you join me on Wednesday, April 15th, 2009, and help me inform the government that WE are eager to be included in the federal tax base as soon as THEY include us in society’s laws? My 5-year-old students could understand this concept: EQUAL = EQUAL
As Americans can’t we agree that there are MANY other important issues to address (like the Economy, Education, Health Care, Poverty & Homelessness, Iraq/Afghanistan…all of these are related), and solving THOSE problems is more urgent than having “Equality Issues” TIE UP THE COURTS for another 30+ years? We will NOT go away.
You keep procreating; we keep popping out. Sorry.
Our representatives have spent years inventing 4-letter words (DOMA, DADT) to restrict us, deny us, demoralize us, and harm our beloved families and children. Enough is enough.
NO MORE. NO MORE.
