Meadandale; perhaps appealing to your heart was a mistake. Maybe someday you will find yourself in the minority, your rights subject to others whims. I would imagine you’ve never experienced that. I could be wrong. But in my experience, those who exhibit empathy for others have experienced something similar in their lives at some time.
Vote the way you like. But asking you to not vote is no different than trying to convince you to vote otherwise. It’s simply political discussion. I’m not trying to “take away” your rights, as the constitutional amendment, if it passes in November, will most decidedly do to gay Californians who have finally been given the right to marry.
