So right now with 21% of the vote in it looks like gay marriage will be banned in California with the vote being 54% for yes and 46% for no so far. THIS SUCKS.

In my opinion, prop 8 is a crock of shit. However, as an American I will always stand by the voice of democracy and by the law, and therefore I must recognize what the people have chosen in California. BUT IT PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH HOW WE GOT HERE. If you live in California, you know what I am talking about. The "Yes on 8" campaign has been one of the most shameful and full-of-bullshit campaigns I have ever seen in my life. They straight up lied to Californians in their advertisements and this is why Prop 8 is winning right now. I feel horrible that this is how Prop 8 is getting carried out. A huge injustice has happened today. IT PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH. I mean, I don't mind if people actually pick this, but it feels to me that people voted for this out of fear and lies and it makes me angry. AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Now the Californian Constitution will get amended and it will take years to reverse this (reversal IS inevitable). AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Yeah, the prop 8 thing is shameful.

They used children (and other shady tactics) as sympathy card while removing rights from people. It's all a sleight of hand. Not to mention the amount of shear money and funding that was funneled to the prop 8 supporters from outside California.

It's just ridiculous in every aspect.

If I were to vote, I would've voted Yes

Now, I would've voted Yes out of ignorance.

I see all those people parading around the streets with their "Vote ____ on Prop 8" signs, and from the way things were said and advertised, I thought voting yes meant you were for gay marriage rights.

It wasn't until yesterday that I started noticing something seemed awkward, and I asked around and thats when I found out it was the opposite.

little off topic I know but, California is also getting eaten alive by mexicans >.<, not that I got anything against them it's just that now there's so many mexicans where I live they teach english as a second language.... wut...

ontopic, now we get to see stuff in the news like "gay couple escapes from california over to other states to get married" or "fellans convicted of being gay, fine for 1000$'s. Gays are outraged."
