The thing that bothers me most about Proposition 8 is that even after it has passed people continue to protest about it. I'm sorry that it passed -- really I am -- but it's done. I'm sure it'll re-open again in the off-season, but for now it's done.
And what bothers me even more is that people who didn't even fucking vote are all WAH! PROP 8 :((( I'm sorry but what? You didn't even try to make a difference. I'm one of those people who think that if you didn't vote than you can't say shit; because not voting is the same as voting for the winner.
The other day my friend had invited me to a Prop 8 protest to which I declined to go to because I just see it as pointless. The Proposition passed and a bunch of teenagers yelling in the middle of the street isn't sending any sort of message to Arnold Schwarzenegger other that we're annoying. Then I found out that my friend hadn't even voted. Ohmigod seriously? Seriously? Go shoot yourself.
Did you know that Prop 8 passed by just 1%? One fucking percent. And you say that your vote doesn't make a difference? If EVERYONE against Prop 8 had voted we wouldn't be here bitching about it.
wtf
