CNN - Court to hear Prop. 8 appeal

"California's Supreme Court said Wednesday that it will hear the appeal of a challenge to Proposition 8, a voter-approved measure outlawing same-sex marriage.

In a written statement, the court said it will not block the implementation or enforcement of the law in the meantime.

Proposition 8 passed with about 52.5 percent of the vote, making California one of several states to ban same-sex marriage in the November 4 elections.

But unlike the other states, California had already been issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples since May, after a state Supreme Court ruling legalized the unions.

The American Civil Liberties Union, Lambda Legal and the National Center for Lesbian Rights filed legal challenges to the vote, asking the high court to rule the ballot-initiative process was "improperly used" to strip away a right protected by the state constitution. iReport.com: Share your view on same-sex marriage

The court said arguments in the case could be heard as early as March.

In its May 15 ruling legalizing same-sex marriage in California, the justices seemed to signal that a ballot initiative like Proposition 8 might not be enough to change the underlying constitutional issues of the case in the court's eyes.

The ruling said the right to marry is among a set of basic human rights "so integral to an individual's liberty and personal autonomy that they may not be eliminated or abrogated by the legislature or by the electorate through the statutory initiative process."

In the hours after the proposition's apparent passage, thousands of protesters took to the streets of Los Angeles and other cities across California in protest.

Observances in support of same-sex marriage were held in cities across the country Saturday."

This is awesome!

a small step

The California Supreme Court has agreed to hear the legal challenges to the recently passed gay marriage ban!

yai!!!

be warned... Gay Fascism.

(click the title)

“I think there is a gay and secular fascism in this country that wants to impose its will on the rest of us, is prepared to use violence, to use harassment. I think it is prepared to use the government if it can get control of it. I think that it is a very dangerous threat to anybody who believes in traditional religion. And I think if you believe in historic Christianity, you have to confront the fact.”

one guess...Newt Gingrich.

fuckin' A.

I'm really not trying to come of as some crazy liberal. Those who know me know that I am not. I'm actually more of a leaner to the Republican side.

But.

I'm gay, you know what, fuck it, and I'm proud of it. , So fuck you. Let me tell you what the opponents of proposition 8 want. They, We... want what you have. See, we don't want anything special, we don't want special rights. We wanna get married, we want to be able to be at our husbands' or wives' death bed. Exactly the rights you have. Hell! We even want the right to have affairs, to be gold diggers, just as much as you people that claim so high do on a daily basis.

What blows my mind is the argument against this case. The only reason that's even worth a hoot is something that should not even be brought up. I get it, I was raised with religion being a big part of my life. I know what the bible says.

BUT

I also know that the Constitution says about separation of church and state.

-Separation of church and state is a political and legal doctrine that government and religious institutions are to be kept separate and independent from each other.^[1] The term most often refers to the combination of two principles: secularity of government and freedom of religious exercise.^[2]

Click it. But, I'm sure you know what it means. We all do. So, could someone please explain to me how this could possibly be happening? Other than the fact that we indeed have a corrupt government. (sorry dad)...But this is totally unconstitutional.

Since when is Propaganda legal in the US?

Propaganda is the deliberate, systematic attempt to shape perceptions, manipulate cognitions, and direct behavior to achieve a response that furthers the desired intent of the propagandist.

We are no better than anyone that has ever unjustly prosecuted anyone.

I am literally ashamed and sadden.
