Please vote NO on 8
I know you’re probably sick and tired of election ads, calls, mailings and blogs telling you how to vote and I’m aware that if you have an opinion on Prop. 8 most likely it’s a strong one. There are a ton of articles out there debunking the yes on 8 scare tactics, most recently from the Los Angeles Times which endorsed a NO on 8 position so I won’t get into all of that here. I’m also aware that reading some random taiko playing artist’s opinion on the matter probably won’t change your mind but here goes anyways…
Personally it’s really hard for me to understand why people get so upset about gay marriage. I just don’t get how letting same sex couples get married affects my marriage in a negative way. If anything I feel that the institution of marriage will be marred if Prop. 8 passes. I wouldn’t join a club that had discriminatory practices, or go to a college that only let Asians attend (like UCLA), or go to a restaurant that didn’t serve Caucasians and it would suck to find myself enjoying the benefits of an institution that discriminates on the basis of sexual orientation.
Please vote No on 8.
