Prop 8 Blurb

I always have an opinion. It's just that on some issues I have so many thoughts rattling around in my head all at the same time that I'm unable to coherently spew. Such it is with the Cali Prop 8 thing that has been going on for the past week and then some. Honestly, I won't even try. What I will say is that I am proud of my fellow queer community alongside more breeders than I would have expected, rallying across the entire nation protesting its passing, and the crowd that showed up here just about four miles down the road from me at the Plaza yesterday following suit. What I'm not so proud about is that, with all of the outrage of the past several days, really the ones in California where it might have made a difference, why didn't those folks get their gay asses out to vote? I read that only thirty percent of registered voters in San Francisco, of all places, even bothered to ballot on that Tuesday. Maybe a lesson learned that action might speak louder than words...
