Frozen Sea of Bigotry
Scenes from the anti gay marriage rally earlier this week. The crowd was predominantly grey haired older white males and bused in children on a field trip from homeschool and Christian schools.
Skip Stam leaves the podium after talking about shooting fish in a barrel while Ian Palmquist stands tall for equality and human rights.

Gay Marriage
Here is the threat in action!
(I just got married in Boston yesterday, I haven't had a chance to go through nearly all the photos, but some of them can be found here)

Congrats
Nice photos.
thanks
=)
The thing that kills me
is all the smug, self-righteous smiling. Jesus would not be happy.
Wonder how many of those folks in that crowd were wearing
mixed fibers, had cheeseburgers for lunch, or have lusted after someone other than their spouse.
Fucking hypocrites.
I don't get it.
I don't get the mixed fiber reference, but I'm guessing that just means I need to start reading the bible more?
Leviticus
you want chapter and verse?
You aren't supposed to wear cloth made of more than one fiber and I think the punshment is being stoned to death. Like I said, "Quick, grab me that big old sack of rocks."

Dang
Apparently I should have been dead long time ago.
I think most of us would have faced stoning
if people actually followed every single word of God intead of picking and choosing just the words they want to follow/inforce.

But wait there's more...
It's OK to have slaves, but not tattoos.
No trimming your sideburns or beard.
Cursing, blasphemy = death by stoning.
No bacon, pork, ham, no ostrich meat. No lard from sheep, goat or ox.
No calamari or shrimp: (Unless it has fins and scales, no seafood)
Also
If you get stoned, you will get tattoos.
I can vouch for that one.
n/t
I see an awful lot of poly-wool blend suits in that crowd
Quick! Somebody grab that big bag of stones.

the counter protest
Yes true it was mostly old folk with nothing better to do for a day. However there was a small counter protest..
which can be seen here

Gray Marriage
Ha! I'm in a couple of those photos. I had a idea, looking at both sets of pictures, to do a satirical Ali G/ Borat style video about "Gray" Marriage.
