Segregation? Wow. I consider myself to be very liberal but I'd only support marriage as a union between a man and a woman.

I think he used the wrong example. For many years there where laws saying a black person and a white person could not marry either.

Prop 8 proponents make me sick, they deserve zero respect.

with the exception in that i mailed out my ballot a bit earlier... ditto.

Why do prop 8 proponents make you sick? Does prop 8 say that gays should be shot?
Are you gay?

Did segregation say black people should be shot? No. Am I black? No. Is the idea of segregation sickening? Yeap.

I think people who back prop 8 disgrace our country's principles.

You may be "very liberal" but you're a bigot, plain and simple, just like you would be if you thought marriage should be between a white and a white or a black and a black, but not a black and a white. Discrimination is discrimination and you're a disgrace to a free society.

He's a bigot, but he understands the definition of marriage

the social institution under which a man and woman establish their decision to live as husband and wife by legal commitments, religious ceremonies, etc

I see "man" "woman" "husband" "wife" I'm NOT a bigot but Marriage isn't 2 people of the same sex - by it's very definition.
