Group Calls For Calif. Amendment To Ban Gay Marriage
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/04/042805calAmend.htm

A day after a bill to legalize same-sex marriage in California passed a key committee opponents have formed a group to gather signatures to have a gay marriage ban placed in the state Constitution.

At a Sacramento news conference organizers of the petition said they represented a coalition of pro-family organizations, churches, and individuals.

The umbrella group is calling itself ProtectMarriage.com but those spokespersons appearing at its press conference in Sacramento Wednesday appeared to be the same people already involved in opposing law suits being waged by same-sex couples to obtain marriage through the courts.


the fascists have reared their ugly heads on this!

now we have a fight on our hands

1. Jeez, we already have a law banning gay marriage

Rather, a law that defines marriage as a compact between one man and one woman.

What a bunch of nonsense.
