I went to the protectmarriage.com website, a.k.a. the hateful bigots website, in order to get contact information to share my disgust with them and before I proceed to their actual homepage, they have a screen that explicitly tells me:
"Voting YES restores traditional marriage."
"Voting NO means same-sex marriage."
Okay...were the people going to that site in questionable support of the proposition and who voted "yes" so painfully simpleminded and unintelligent they had to be told so categorically what their vote actually meant in plain terms like that? If so, THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN VOTING IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! Such a weighty issue with unimaginable social and personal consequences should not be degraded to those two simple phrases; furthermore, for anyone who looks at it that simply, their voting fitness should be brought into question.
I'm really not surprised though, these are the same people who look at what they think they know as love and commitment in black and white terms and think marriage should be between two reluctant teenagers who made a mistake and want to compound the problem with another. These are also the same individuals who have to be told what to think by people like Billo the Clown and some deluded, earth bound church that wouldn't know genuine human values if they were really raining down on them in a forest somewhere.
If you go to the site, let me know if you get the same thing. I took a screen shot too if you're interested.
How about this instead (to be gracious and assume they would know all these big words):
"Voting YES means you're in favor of injudicious tradition that has created and proliferated centuries of flagrant inequality, you're in favor of discriminating against your fellow citizens, and suffer from flaming intolerance."
"Voting NO means you're an independently intelligent thinker, you're kindhearted, with a keen sense of what's right and fair, and know hate is not included in any family values."
THAT'S how it should be stated!
