I am proud of this icon who is standing up to be counted and championing the LGBT community to vote no, the only sensible vote, on Propositon 8. Sir Ian has been an idol of mine for many many years.

What i REALLY wanted to comment on was just how fucking AWESOME Sir Ian is. The man has been fighting this same battle in his own country for years. He is an intelligent, honorable, humorous, talented, handsome queer and he should be an idol for each of us. D’oh. What i REALLY wanted to comment on was just how fucking AWESOME Sir Ian is.

Maybe we should go on their website and convince them that they shouldn't have tax exeption and are themselves the real terrorists, attacking a community of people in an attempt to dehumanize them and strip them of their rights.

As an englishman myself I cannot understand what the problem with the "protect family" people, they wouldn't be protecting my friend's family of two dads (in england civil unions are actually treated as marriage) and certainly wouldn't protect my future family, when my husband (if I have a husband) needs to visit me in hospital. Anti-discrimination laws, and initiatives about education are already covered by other legislations, and would not be affected by this ruling. I hate reading lies. I hate people using children to further their agenda. When I was young, I wished to move to America, but over the last two years, I've become disgusted at the politics and fanaticism of the conservatives, who do not believe in every man being equal. Shame on you. All field trips in California require permission slips, so don’t give me that B*ll*cks.

Prop 8 Really is About the Kids I am concerned for children in California. “Who’s Really Lying”, a well-researched and startling article on www.protectmarriage.com illustrates how the education of children about being gay is one of the core aims of many of the most active opponents of Prop 8. It has already happened in Massachusetts and been upheld by a federal judge. It has even happened more strikingly during a recent first-grade field trip in San Francisco. Same-sex marriage proponents want kids to condone gay marriage, to accept it, to think of it as normal. Voting Yes on 8 will ensure that children are taught correctly about traditional marriage AND tolerance for gay people under domestic partnerships. It is NOT intolerant to vote your conscience and vote YES on 8. You are not alone. http://www.protectmarriage.com www.whatisprop8.com http://concernedincalifornia.blogspot.com Make No Mistake.
