Don't blame all of us in the community for how immaturely some are acting about Prop 8! Not everyone seeks to blame specific groups of people for no good reason.
Yes that is true, all shouldn't be blamed, but for some reason the masses seemed to follow Dan Savage's lead with the article he wrote and basically stood behind him.
The message of "Don't blame all of us" needs to be spread amongst everyone.

Do you know why gay marriage gets legalized? Morals opinions aside...If the politicians support the gay marriages, all gays will return the favor by voting for those supportive politicians during reelection. A politicians job only job is to get themselves reelected, not to make their "peasants" happy
I can just never understand why anyone would be interested in WHO I marry. If I marry someone of the same sex, people wouldn't even KNOW about it, unless they know me personally.
I've struggled with that question for a long time, and I've never gotten a good answer. Why would anyone care, when it doesn't even enter their personal world?
Bottom line is that I believe it's immoral and I refuse to vote for such a thing. Of course, as we will likely soon find out in California, it doesn't much matter what the majority of people want or vote for.

Gee, let's see, a politician advocating an issue someone supports and gets their vote. Wow, what an epiphony. A true intellectual marvel you are.

See, I tell my wife that everyday and she still doesn't believe me! Oh, you were sarcastic...
My point is it doesn't matter what your moral views are on it, we're going to see more and more of it...
