Californians Rescind Gay Marriage Rights

Californians narrowly voted to take away existing rights from gay people yesterday. I personally know people whose marriages will be nullified as a result. I'm astounded that a majority of California voters were willing to dismantle preexisting families. The gay rights movement needs to show Californians the faces of the families they tore apart yesterday (I don't know why they didn't do it beforehand).

According to exit polls, Prop 8 passed based largely on the support of black voters. Obama voters. President-Elect Obama will have to answer for his tepid support for the "No on Prop 8" campaign. It was the safe political move. But it probably cost my friends their marriages.
