Hi Taz.
I remember reading not too long ago the thread about homosexual marriages. The sound arguments from those that favored gay marriage were most provocative. I'm upset myself that prop 8 passed, for I voted against it. But, as I've heard and read, there have been and continue to be massive protests against prop 8's passing.
The Supreme court case of
Loving v. Virginia and the 14th amendment are, to the best of my understanding, enough to show the unconstitutionality of prop 8's passing. Not only that, but I've heard that a simple majority vote isn't qualified as a legal method in revising the California Constitution. I have to research this further, of course.
Anyway, let's hope the protests continue, and homosexuals in California, and eventually the nation, win their right to equal protection under the law, even though it's already been granted to them under the 14th amendment.
Lastly, I'm curious as to just how upset you were when you first heard of prop 8's passing. If this is you after you've given yourself "some time to calm down"...
