Disappointed

While I am very happy that Proposition 8 passed with 52.5% of the vote, I am quite disappointed that there is so much hostility in California. Several groups have filed lawsuits and protests are receiving a lot of media coverage with much of the anger over the loss being directed at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). Not surprising when the No on 8 campaign cried "discrimination." However, CA law guarantees the same rights to civil unions as married couples.

Here are some pictures of protests, along with a link to an LA Times article about a protest held today in front of the Los Angeles Temple (click here).
