While the struggles that ethnic minorities and homosexuals face are DIFFERENT, one is not better or worse. Discrimination is never good.
All humans should be able to love who they want without fear of persecution. This country was founded on ideas of religious freedom. Let's not forget that. Regardless of your personal life, think about whether or not we should ammend the US Constitution to RESTRICT rights.
Women in particular, consider whether or not you want the government to restrict your legal rights any further.
As of the writing of this message, CA has stopped Gay marriages. Thankfully some couples I know were able to affirm their commitment to each other recently. Hopefully, the courts will recognize their relationships, and allow them to share in all the rights and obligations associated with marriage.
Peace y'all!

My post was in response to the part about the discrimination that ethnic minorities face being no worse then that of homosexuals, just Saturday while driving back from Tuscaloosa, Alabama I was followed by policemen for about 3miles then pulled over. The policeman asked me where I headed then looked @ my DL and registration peeked through the car,s back window then told me to have a nice day just another case of DWB. Now I never heard of DWG or can't image a policeman looking in a car and decides that person is gay and I'm going to stop him/her.
