IF THE ONLY PRAYER YOU SAID IN YOUR LIFE WAS "THANK YOU", THAT WOULD SUFFICE. ~Meister Eckhart

What if...

What if you and your loved one got married one day? What if you and your loved one are already married? What if the state you lived in decided your marriage, sanctioned by law, one day invalid and you woke up and your marriage had vanished?
.
Think about it.
.
That is what will happen to 18,000 couples in California if Ken Starr and the Prop 8 Legal Defense Fund get their way in the California Supreme Court.
.
Please watch THIS video and sign the petition to allow 36,000 people their rights to love another human being. And to protect the families of same sex couples.
.
See if you can watch it and not cry.
.
What if you didn't make your voice heard?

When we are talking about spending
837 billion dollars on this country's problems, it just makes me ill that we waste time trying to legislate this.

Ok, thanks for the warning. I have to admit even with the warning I was expecting the tears that flowed freely. Thanks for the heads up dear friend. I plan on highlighting this on my own journal as well. The more we get on board the better in any event. (Hugs)Indigo

It horrifies me -- here in South Africa we fought to have a clause barring discrimination against same-sex orientation written into the consitution along with outlawing discrimination on the grounds of racism and sexism.

Strength to LGBT couples.
