Judge Declares Proposition 8 Unconstitutional Walker In a 136-page ruling, Judge Vaughn Walker has declared Proposition 8, the measure banning same-sex marriage in California, unconstitutional under both the due-process and equal-protection clauses. Says the ruling: “Because Proposition 8 is unconstitutional under both the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses, the court orders entry of judgment permanently enjoining its enforcement; prohibiting the official defendants from applying or enforcing Proposition 8 and directing the official defendants that all persons under their control or supervision shall not apply or enforce Proposition 8.

LOL. The mormons are probably fund-raising again as I type...

Did you see the documentary the Mormon Proposition? I want to because it looks fascinating and I've only managed to read small bits and pieces about their involvement. apparently they raised the most money ever for a social-cause campaign :(

*rolling eyes*

No, I hadn't heard that the Church of the Latter Day Saints had been so actively involved. It certainly doesn't surprise me. You know how I feel about them, particularly after what they did to my cousin. Luckily, Mormons don't tend to go near our godless suburb so they won't be hearing about my outrage.

Oh man, I watched the documentary last night. So much raaage. I may have also cried a little. TBH if I'd watched this before the ruling it would have been 100000000 times more gutting.

You can dl it from the <3 place for movies. Definitely worth a watch. It goes into how they approached it and follows the money as well as looking at mormon culture and is just sad, sad, sad.
