Prop 8 did not "remove rights" from homosexuals. It preserved the definition of marriage (as it should be preserved).
Homosexuals do not have "marital rights," nor should they. The whole idea is so disgusting! It cheapens the definition of marriage. Next thing you know, people will be demanding to marry their dog!

Here's a more in depth article from a Vermont law review
And some people claim that the fight for same-sex marriage is not comparable to the fight for interracial marriage.
Even weirder, is that some of the same 'arguments' were even used to protest against women getting the vote back in the early 20th century. "It's unnatural!" "It's against God's plan!" "What next? If women are allowed to vote, will my dog be allowed to vote?" "What about the chillllllllldren?"
What's with the dogs?
So, when women got the vote 100 years ago, did dogs start voting?
When interracial couples were allowed to marry 50 years ago, did people start marrying their dogs?
Have you noticed anyone marrying their dogs since same-sex marriage became legal in many places?
