How I’m Voting On California’s Ballot Initiatives/Propositions

My good friend Paul Gulyas tells off bigot brooksbayne.  Well put, Paulie.

My response to this idiot in bold, below.

brooksbayne:

Prop 8- Limit on Marriage.

  • For - Just like the signs in the restaurants that declare “no shoes, no shirt, no service” are for someone who actually walked into the place expecting to get service without shoes and a shirt. These days we need to put up signs for everything, unfortunately. This sign is a permanent “no service” sign for all those who haven’t been paying attention.
Yeah, because the institution of marriage should be run like a fucking diner.
So “no shoes, no shirt, no service” is the equivalent of… “no penis and vagina, no service”? Is that what you’re saying?
Is it like that, or is it, say, more like “No white skin, no service?”
Because people can fucking go home and get some shoes and a shirt, and come back later, and be served at that restaurant.
People can’t go home and stop being black. Or gay. Or just end their love for somebody. And come back later, with a member of the opposite sex, and sit down and eat some pie, and everybody’s happy!
Prop 8 is such an obvious infringement on civil rights, I actually think you have to be a full-blown bigot or just a fucking moron to support it. It’s forcing one group’s beliefs on EVERYONE. It is common sense that that is NOT OKAY.
Yeah, it is unfortunate we have to put up signs everywhere these days. Here’s a sign for you, and everyone who voted “Yes on 8”,
PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS, AND THEN PULL BOTH YOUR HEAD AND YOUR ASS OUT OF YOUR ANCIENT OUTDATED SENSE OF CIVIL LIBERTIES AND START LEARNING ABOUT ACCEPTANCE AND LOVING YOUR FELLOW MAN. AND, MAKE A GAY JOKE ABOUT THAT LAST PART, YOU IDIOT.
That is all.
