Minnesota: This is who we're voting against in November.

Brianne Bilyeu, , ,

Image is from MPR News Minnesota in Photos and was taken by Alex Kolyer Follow the link to see more of his photos from the march.

MPR has a series of photos from Sunday’s Rosary Walk in St. Paul to support the “marriage amendment” – the constitutional amendment that would define marriage as between one man and one woman, and which would prohibit same-sex couples from getting married. Thousands of Catholics showed up to march. These are religious people who believe that the government should make a decision that violates church-state separation, who believe that our gay family members, friends, neighbors and co-workers shouldn’t be allowed to enter a civil contract because they think their god and their little book says it’s wrong. I cried when I saw this photo. All of these people are marching for inequality, bigotry and are willing to place a vote in November that would deny basic rights that they (likely) all enjoy and take for granted.

We must go to the polls in November and vote against this hateful would-be amendment. We need to bury it.

    Great Post Brianne! Of course…the banner ad right now is for a site that is for this amendment, they have a poll on their front page with wording to make you sick. Ugh!

    Us Minnesotans get a lot of the anti-gay marriage adds. It really infuriates me! I will be going to all of the LGBT and MN atheist events, last couples years I made it to the Mankato pride event. But I have also been talking with all of my family, and now that I am not the only out cousin… It is getting a little more acceptable amongst my aunts and uncles… It’s a big family.

    Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon. Kudos

    Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say that you’ve done a awesome job with this. Additionally, the blog loads super fast for me on Opera. Outstanding Blog!

    I drop a comment when I especially enjoy a post on a website or I have something to valuable to contribute to the conversation. Usually it’s triggered by the fire displayed in the article I read. And on this article CF Colors v 2.1, Post Formats Admin UI v1.3.1, and Social v2.10 : alexking.org. I was excited enough to post a leave a responsea response 😉 I actually do have 2 questions for you if it’s allright. Could it be only me or does it look like some of these comments appear like they are coming from brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are writing at additional online social sites, I’d like to keep up with you. Would you list all of all your community sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform. I have heard good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I’ve been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.

    Its like you learn my thoughts! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the e book in it or something. I believe that you simply can do with a few p.c. to force the message home a bit, but other than that, that is excellent blog. A fantastic read. I’ll certainly be back.
