Our neighbor and I were talking tonight and although I hate to admit it, because I don’t think we’re too backwater, he’s a little bit white trash.  We don’t have a ton to talk about so I brought up Proposition 8.  Figured we’re both around 40, middle class, white men, we should be able to at least talk about this without anyone getting too ignorant.  Boy, was I wrong.

I’m against Proposition 8 – let people marry who they want.  He’s for it – believes there’s something wrong with the law.  Figuring that didn’t make much sense I asked, “what do you think is wrong with the law?”  Now, I’m not much of a legal mind, but his response saying “it’s not written correctly” sounded odd to me. He’s married to a Fillipino, so I added in there, “how would you feel if they said you couldn’t stay married to your wife because she’s not the same race?”

The California debate over Proposition 8, banning same sex marriage, is raging at full force, and it would appear that both sides have a few idiots shouting their opinions through services like Craigslist.org.  Ten minutes of reading is enough to make anyone’s head spin, so uncensoredrants.com is going to troll around there a bit and see if we can’t bring some of the more intelligent responses here for moderation and review.  Tell us your opinions and why you’re voting for or against Proposition 8.
