Prop 8

[_milashka]

One thing I am happy about in regards to Legalized Discrimination Proposition a.k.a. Proposition 8 is that none of my friends voted for it.
The breakdown of the vote.

sounds weird to me

Californians who attend church weekly voted for Proposition Eight by a margin of 83 percent to 17 percent, according to exit polls. Those who attend church occasionally voted 40 percent in favor and 60 percent opposed. Californians who never attend church were 14 percent in favor and 86 percent
opposed.

Why? Preaching from the pulpit is a known thing. Prop 8 was largely supported by churches

You are confusing CA Prop 8 - same sex marriage ban, and SF Prop K - decriminalization of prostitution.

You read my post wrong
I think that a ban on gay marriage is legalized discrimination against gay couples.
In a country where Britney Spears can get married and divorced within a day, a country in which Elizabeth Taylor can get married 7 times, a committed gay couple should be able to have the same legal protections as straight couples.

Oh yeah, sorry. 34 freaking ballot initiatives can get a bit confusing

it's ok
I can see how you read "discrimination" as "decriminalization"
