45. I am black, straight, and voted NO on 8.

I agree with you. This is what I say to my brothers and sisters:

Persecution has no place in the Constitution.

I don't want a church in Utah to define the Constitution of the state of California.

I choose to live in California. If I wanted to live in a state run by Mormons, I'd move to fucking Utah!

How righteous is it to go through a door that someone held open for you only to slam it in the next person's face?

For once, we are not the most vulnerable, maligned, marginalized, persecuted minority.It is now OUR turn to be the bigger person. This time, we get to be the champions.

Why would we ever want to treat ANYone as second-class citizens?
