Prop 8 Protest - this is not over.

Last night the protests against the passing of Proposition 8 continued all over Southern California. I attended the one that took place at the Mormon Tabernacle - this church was targeted specifically because of the 15 million dollars that they donated to the "Yes on 8" campaign, not because of their religion or their belief system.

At one point a group of representatives from the church arrived to clean up the front of the church, but as a group of 10 "No on 8" protesters walked by they began shouting names and behaving aggressively. When the "No on 8" protesters tried to talk to them a  group of 3 young Mormon women attacked on of our "No" representatives and punched her in the face. At this point all hell broke loose and there was pushing, yelling and a few more punches thrown.

That's when the riot police were called:




Ambulances took the injured away and the crowd of "No" protesters began to request a redress of the greivances from the police. - our heroes the LAPD. New York has public servants that run into collapsing buildings and we have public servants that shoot 8 year olds and allow hate crimes to take place in front of them and take no action. Our people were taken away in ambulances....and theirs drove away in SUV's.
