I just drove home from Hollywood over Laurel Canyon and the streets right before Crescent Heights were packed with yes on 8 picketers. A lot of them looked like they were picked up in the parking lot of home depot and are looking to make a quick buck. Very scary.
Same here in SF - in the rain no less! Scary stuff.

What's also so f......scary about this is that if they win the yes on 8 , this may nullify the legal status of married couples in other states, those who went to California to be legally wed. The vote has much broader implications than for Californians alone.
In one way it wouldn't affect me personally, I'm het, but it does affect many of my friends directly, and the rights of all people to not have government dictate how a person is to live their personal life. In that way it affects everyone.
(I hope I'm clear here, I'm tired after a long marathon work session.)
Same here in Sacramento. It's really scary. They're out mobbing at a particularly heavy intersection very close to my house. And I heard on the news about some fights that have broken out. All of which have involved Vote Yes bastards bashing opposition with their Vote Yes signs.
Get out your video cameras and document the atrocities.
My other half says he did with his phone.
Yeah, my neighbors have a YES ON PROP 8 sign in their yard.
My roommates and I lit it on fire. I swear, it was an accident.

I'm so glad I moved from Winnetka to NYC! Even then, I'm mad at myself because I was trying to find info on absentee voting and couldn't so I registered myself here and can't vote NO on it!

I tried to run an errand earlier this evening, and ending up just hurrying back home. There are three major demonstration groups within a mile of us, and taken together there are literally hundreds of people. All shouting, waving banners, holding their children up - and almost every car honking, cheering and waving as they drive by.
I had to come home, because I felt like they would realize who I was and stone me in the street.

Well, now I'm getting dressed to go out and meet with these people.
I've had it. I can't sit here any more and just watch them discriminate.
I'm ready to kick some biggot ass.
Where ARE my stilletos?!
