For shame, TTBF.

This is a major court ruling that affects the lives of hundreds of thousands of California citizens

I am sure my friends Dave and Steve, who are in danger of having their marriage declared null and void, would like to have words with you

i'm not minimizing the importance of the court ruling coming up...

just the post about police putting bike racks in place in San Francisco in anticipation of it... seems a bit.. superfluous

No, it shows that they are expecting trouble, which if the Supreme Court upholds bigotry, then there will be justifiable riots.

i'd put the bike rack in place more for a ruling the other way... that could be one hell of a party...

Great. And I hope SFPD baton the snot out of every one of the lawless goons who haven't learn to live by the rule of law.

But in all fairness to SF...

...about 4 min in, you can watch the video of the grown man knocking the old woman's cross out of her hand and the No on 8 group begins stomping on it.


[sigh]


I only wish I was working for SFPD tomorrow.

No offense to the gay community, I support gay marriage for the record, but why get violent if it doesn't go your way? Violence doesn't solve anything.

Anger.

Frustration at being denied equality, again.


When you get kicked constantly, at some point, you lash back.

You share libertarian leaning.

A very extreme, top of the head example of the dangers of condemning an entire group based on the actions of one.

Thanks - but not at all. I don't excuse the actions of the person in the video (although the video has been edited to make it seem different than what ACTUALLY happened), but I hate it when people do crap like what T-man did there.
