Proposition 8 Backlash Across America
A series of protests against the passage of Proposition 8 scheduled to take place today in Los Angeles and across the country will be a key test for a loosely formed Internet-based movement that has emerged since California voters banned gay marriage last week.
Across America today people are protesting the passage of California's Prop 8. The blame is flying as to who exactly caused Prop 8 to pass — African-Americans, Mormons, gay blacklash, Barney Frank, seniors, Barack Obama — but this movement is still united around the idea that homosexual couples deserve to get married just like the rest of us. Today's protests happened in New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, and 300 other cities.
