Dan Savage: Game Over

[furrbear]

Dan Savage on the Prop 8 aftermath, and the argument that religious bigots are simply expressing their heartfelt faith

In the wake of Prop 8 millions of gays and lesbians all over the country have decided that we're no longer going to play by the old rules. We're not going to let people kick our teeth down our throats and then run and hide behind "Nothing personal -- just my private religious beliefs!" That game's over.

DAMN right!

If Raddon wanted to ... proselytize on street corners against gay marriage ... that could be viewed as an expression of his "privately held religious beliefs."

buh-wha?

It's pretty clear to see that Seattle is one of the Gay-teway Cities Out of Mormon Hell from the comment thread. Several probably gay-boy commentors (Jordan in particular) that are trying to twist the details of "Yes on 8" into anything but what it actually is.

I feel sorry for them, more than anything. LDS brainwashing is ruthlessly efficient.
