poses problems of avoiding both the substance and exploitable-as-at-least-appearance of bigotry in the countermovement. For example, apparently at this point only a few days after the vote, one of many, consider the following website:
http://www.mormonsstoleourrights.comThe problem is that the fact is that the Mormon Church (for which many are aptly seeking to have their 501 (3)c status -- requiring that they not devote a 'substantial' proportion of their resources to 'lobbying' and politics -- revoked) furnished multiple millions to the campaign. I read that $19 million of the total 'yes on prop 8' funding came from Mormons, fully 4/5 of the total.
My own view is that, Mormons or no, only those individuals and institutions specifically linked to the Yes on Prop 8 campaign should be targeted, and not "Mormons" generally or, for that matter, the whole STATE of Utah.
