Watch live feed for the Meet in the Middle 4 Equality rally taking places for marriage equality in Fresno, California today. Speakers include Lt. Dan Choi, Milk screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, Cleve Jones and Kate Kendall.
Update: Below is some footage from the rally today… since the live feed is, well, no longer live :). We will post more clips as they become available.
After the “Defenders” of one-man, one-woman marriage defeat gay marriage… who will they go after next? Check your bible for clues or just watch the cute short film below…
This one’s a keeper… spread it around.
To the disdain of of many pro-marriage equality groups, Theodore B. Olson and David Boies who argued Bush v. Gore back in 2000, are challenging Proposition 8 on the grounds the ruling creates a class of “second-class citizens” thereby violating the the U.S. Constitution. Representing two same-sex couples under the newly founded American Foundation for Equal Rights, the legal odd couple will fight Proposition 8 all the way to the Supreme Court. Video from today’s press conference.
Pro marriage equality groups are concerned that if the battle for same-sex marriage reaches the Supreme Court, a ruling in our favor is unlikely considering the conservative-leaning makeup of the court, possibly setting the movement back years. Others suspect that there is conspiracy at work on behalf of the Right to derail the same-sex marriage movement entirely by pushing same-sex marriage into the Supreme Court before gaining enough public support and before the Court is ready to rule favorably.
It will be a light posting day here at inlookout.com as we wrap our heads around today’s terrible ruling. While my marriage may have been saved, I’d rather not be a part of a special group that has rights while others do not.
Here are few more pictures from today’s rally outside the California Supreme Court…
So tell me who… who is the divisive little @#!$ carrying the GAY = PERVERT sign in the first and last photo? While I certainly disagreed with all of the “pro” Prop 8 signs… at least they were civil and not disrespectful unlike THAT ONE.
