This morning we walked down to City Hall to join in a rally for our civil rights, which were taken away by Proposition 8, which, for the first time, wrote discrimination against a specific group of Californians into the state's constitution. There were tens of thousands of people, and the level of energy was great to see. Similar events were held all across the country at the same time. We are hopeful that the State Supreme Court will invalidate this hateful proposition.
