I just love how the right is all for small government, yet wants the government to tell you who you can and can't marry. What are we, the Christian Iran?

I'm in California and we're fucking PISSED. There are so many protests tonight, and already 3 lawsuits have been filed saying that Prop 8 is unconstitutional, which it is. Our supreme court already included sexuality in our constitution's equal protection clause along with race and gender. It is not legal for a proposition to discriminate against people based on sexuality.

However, even if it passes for good, it only passed with 52.2% of the vote this time. In 2000, Prop 22 (same shit) passed with 61.4% of the vote. That's how fast California is becoming Queer-friendly. I guarantee same-sex marriage will be legal in California again, either in a few months or just a few years max.

And exit polls are saying that it was mostly due to black women and other minorities, who don't see the irony in voting for a separate but equal clause. Also, what the fuck is with Libertarians? 60% of the Libertarians in California voted YES on Prop 8.
