[ They just took marriage away from 20,000 couples & made their children bastards. You don't do that and get away with it. ]

Gay people are fucking pissed and apparently rallies are being held at Mormon temples all over the country. The ACLU is considering suing the Mormon church for investing so much money to get Prop 8 passed. The church put up 4 out of every 5 dollars spent to ban same-sex marriage in California. When you interfere with politics, so says the law, you should probably pay some goddamn taxes.

Dan Savage on boycotting Utah:
Honest to God: My boyfriend and I were talking about taking a trip to Utah this winter to go snowboarding. We've heard great things about the resorts there, and our kid wants to go, and we've never been. But you know what? We've never been to Whistler either. Or Bear Mountain in California. Or to any of the resorts in Colorado. So fuck you, Utah— we're going to big, blue Colorado.

You wanna play politics with peoples' lives? Fine. But they game's on now and remember: you started it. Utah is the new Coors. Pass it on.
Slog received an email later that morning. A protester was on her way to a rally and wanted to make a billboard. She was soliciting ideas... and ideas they had:
  • $25 Million Wasted on Hate.
  • Marriage is a sacred institution, between a man and a woman and a woman and a woman and a woman....
  • Keep your Mitt off my marriage
  • Gay people pay taxes too. Separate your church from my state.
  • I'll Keep My Nose Out of Your Magic Underwear if You Keep Your Nose Out of My Bedroom.
  • STOP THE MORMONIC PLAGUE
  • Keep Your Body (of Christ) off my Laws
  • You have two wives. All I want is one husband.
  • I'm a little bit country, you're a little bit insane & fascist
  • Can You Please Go To Your Own Special Planet NOW and Leave Us Alone On This One?
  • Under the Banner of Hatred
  • Big Love Is An Awful TV Show
  • Let US Get Married or I'll Make you Fuck My Mouth
  • Only one M away from a MORON!
  • Separate your church from my state.
  • ...and my favorite: FUCK YOU BIGOTS!
Mormons are sure coming under a lot of fire for their role in this, but what about the Catholics?
