I feel sorry for the missionaries in California right now. I hope they will be safe.

It's so wonderful to see the Gay movement showing their tolerant side.

Freedom of speech. There's nothing wrong with what's happening there. It's their right. God bless America.

This is the worst possible outcome for LDS. Shame on your hateful church. It's disgraced itself again.

Did I say the LDS Church should be banned by government from doing what it did? Have you ever read Skokie? The American Nazi party has a right to parade in Jewish neighborhoods carrying Nazi symbols. The LDS church did nothing illegal, just stupid, self-destructive, and wrong.

Maybe they should give up the quest for Eqaulity and go back to school.

Very funny, Tex. Do you want to compare diplomas and (as my friend 3D would say) W-2's between the people who voted for and against Prop. 8?

This looks pretty peacable to me. I bet you're ashamed seeing it, deep inside.

"Bemused" would be my word of choice. There is such rich irony in "Eight is Hate" signs right next to "Go Back to Utah," "Vile Mormons," and "Mormon Scum."

You'd think these geniuses would at least make the Mormon = Moron wordplay, but I didn't see it anywhere.

Link?

These protests are nothing. The real damage has been done in terms of Mormonism's image among the credentialed classes, and the effects will be slow but inexorable and lasting. Romney is done. None of this surprises me, by the way.
