SAME-SEX MARRIAGES
- I was at the steps of the City of San Francisco Hall on Monday, Feb 23 and Tuesday Feb 24/04 for couple of hours displaying a sign "Marriage is between man and woman" and I am entitled to my opinion.
- I understand Mayor Newsom is marrying gay people to uphold equal protection rights and promote respect, love and affection among the people.
- I did not find this at all. In stead of engaging in a civil argument, I was disappointed to find that same-sex marriage supporters and some employees to be belligerent, insulting, jeering and were taking unauthorized pictures.
- This was very unbecoming of people who want support and respect for their marriages from the majority.
- It is a near-riot situation. They want to engage you in very hostile and angry discussions.
