Reply #261: I am mormon and voted NO on 8

[daveskilt]

lets blame mormons - we went about 80% for yes on 8 and mormons lobbied like hell to pass it. there are a half million mormons in CA so the 400,000 vote difference is about how many mormons voted for 8.

I think the point of the OP here is that a group which is familiar with persecution and specifically marriage rights (ironically mormons fall into that category too - just a little further back in the past than A-A people) were the ones leading the way in persecuting another group.

maybe we all need someone to kick down.
