Prop 8
Californians ought to be ashamed.
Members of the LDS church deserve to be ashamed.
The only upside to Prop 8's passage - the demographic groups that got it passed were the 45-54s (by a small margin), 55-64 and, most heavily, the over 65's. Time will have its way, and those who voted for it will sooner or later not be with us any longer. Give it 5 or 8 or 10 years and there will be few left who think it's okay to declare their fellows less than human.
