2008 From the East Lansing, Michigan, Protest

"It's freezing cold here," my friend Alice writes. "We all agreed that, in the future, Californians should have the courtesy to be nationally-notable bigots only in the summer months."

@2, you know, Slog isn't a tween forum. We can, in fact, use letters and words by themselves.
As someone who lives in Ohio, it's really fucking cold here from November to April. I would have attended a protest, but the closest is two hours away.

Phoenix had lovely warm weather for protesting. It was in the 80's today. I didn't take any pictures but there are some up on Flickr. Can't let you think we didn't do our part for Prop 102.

OOO! Sorry Michigan. Our rally here in San Diego was nice and warm. Good turn out too. Keep up the good work.

Dan,
Have you ever been refused service at a bar because of your skin color? Have you ever suffered an injury while fighting a pointless war? No! So SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU RACIST, PRO-WAR piece of shit. I only hope that your son gets drafted in a few years to go find some "weapons". Then you will know how it feels. Apologize you bastard! And apologize for the rest of your pathetic life.

I don't if you heard about this, Chris, but there is a war going on in Iraq. Our dumbfuck president lied to us, and said that Weapons of Mass Destruction was the basis for going there. And your gay god Savage supported it. He has recanted in the sense that it isn't good to piss off his liberal base. But he doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about. As an injured soldier, I KNOW that he'd rather sell books than ever admit he was wrong. Fuck him. I gave my leg for this country. He didn't do shit for me.

It's so easy and might I add, "mature", to not address an adversary's argument, but rather just say 'troll'. Oh, and you can also use, "I am a bad, bad man".

@9: He means that, because of one of his fathers' political writings, young Savage-Miller should be drafted and send to some foreign desert to look for WMDs that don't exist.
17
@10, you're an injured soldier? Holy shit, bet you wish you had done better in high school, and didn't need to join the Army to get the College scholarship, huh?
18
I think I've figured it out! Prop 8 was a protest vote against Dan Savage, because he, as omnipotent King of the Gays, single-handedly forced an unwilling government to invade Iraq. It's all so clear now!

From Alaska; I'd have to agree with your friend Alice. It snowed during our protest. My feet were soaked.

ok, its about time for Slog to start banning the trolls and deleting their comments. The flame wars just aren't even interesting to read.

Where were the protesters in East Lansing in 2004 when prop 2 passed in their own damn state?
Btw, prop 2 banned not only gay marriage (which was already illegal), but also ALL civil unions. Period.
Fucking Michigan State.
