California Gay marriage...
So does whats going on in California anger and disturb anyone else? Gay Marriage argument aside, you have a Liberal activist mayor breaking state laws and spitting on the will of the people.
Quote:
Proposition 22
On March 7, 2000, the people of California voted on Proposition 22, a proposal to enact a state "Defense of Marriage Act" as an initiative statute. The text of Prop 22 reads:
“Only marriage between a man and a woman
is valid or recognized in California.”
Proposition 22 was ratified by an overwhelming majority of California voters, prevailing by a 23-point margin. Statewide, 4,618,673 votes were cast in favor of the proposition, comprising 61.4% of the total vote. Opponents garnered 2,909,370 votes, for 38.6% of the vote.
Final vote counts revealed that Proposition 22 won in 52 of California's 58 counties, including all of the major metropolitan areas except for San Francisco. The six counties which did not approve Prop. 22 were all in the immediate San Francisco Bay area, including: Alameda county, Marin county, San Francisco county, Santa Cruz county, Sonoma county, and Yolo county.

2/3's of one of the most liberal states in the country voted for this. Now you have a rogue mayor committing a felonious act by knowingly and willingly breaking state law. This shit is ridiculous, not to mention it sets a horrible precident. Perhaps whats most upsetting is that no one is really doing anything about it.
