Prop 8

November 6, 2008

I hate how the media has already announced Barack Obama as the next president of the US, but hasn’t announced that Prop 8 has been passed yet. I was SO happy when I woke up this morning to find out that 52% of precincts were voting YES on 8 and 48% were voting NO. The margin has remained the same since then, with 96% of precints reporting on proposition 8 results.
This means that I don’t have to leave California (: But I was HONESTLY going to pack my bags and leave California if Obama won AND Prop 8 didn’t pass.
For those who like to argue that proposition 8 is like equal rights in race, they’re wrong. I’m sorry, but you can’t argue “equal” righs for all, because frankly, gay marriage is INCREDIBLY one-sided. The gay community only wants to appease a small population of people. Because honesty, if California WAS to argue for EQUAL rights for all, they’d let sibings marry (if siblings were to love each other), fathers and daughters/mothers and sons marry, and cousins marry. Incest would be allowed too, because we have to be EQUAL to the wishes of everyone. But this is NOT the case! The gay population wants their ways… and I’m not about to be part of an issue that supports a one-sided cause.
I’m celebrating California’s choices today, on the basis of the proposition results. This issue shows that California residents still have SOME moral standards within them. GOD is still looking out for us. and THAT is something I’m really proud of.
