More of that socio-political thing

((Intro text quoted from nakalaori_chan, who linked me there in the first place ♥))

Hey, f-list. I want to talk to you about something important to me.

I would like to request that you please take a moment to look at this petition and possibly sign it.

You probably know that California passed Proposition 8 in November. This proposition took away the rights of gay couples to marry, but it was unclear on the position of whether or not gay couples who were already married could stay married.

Now, Ken Starr is trying to nullify these 18,000 marriages that were carried out before the passage of Prop 8. The gay community has been put down again and again by this country, but I like to think that we are moving forward towards equality. I want to someday be able to marry the woman I love. It isn't about whether it makes you uncomfortable, or whether you believe it's a choice - it's about granting a human to right the thousands upon thousands of couples who are denied rights in this country, the land of the free.

So please take a moment to look at the link I provided.

Thank you.
