Brad Pitt donating $100,000 to fight Prop. 8

Woo-hoo! I knew i liked him

 

O rly? SRSLY?
(On Wii so chatspeak is fine... I hope?)
I didn't read it yet but if it's true, this makes me love fight club MOARR

 

that should be illegal ... somehow

Yay for Brad Pitt though!

 

I'm so glad to see how many celebrities are contributing to the No on 8 movement. I would be crushed if such a monumental progress were broken after only a few months.

 

That's really great.

 

Good for you Becky.

 

:eusa_danc AWESOME! I'm so glad he did that...we need celebs on our side.

 

Of course I applaud your decision to donate against the proposition, but more as a counterbalance to all the "yes" money, than for the potential benefit a "no" vote would have. In an ideal world maybe the vote would have more to do with how Californians feel about the issue (s) at hand, and less about which side has a better financial support network. Outside ideas yes, outside money no. Further amendment to election laws? or maybe I am just a hopeless idealist.

End note 1: I get the sense that more reactionary elements are less inclined to be "hung up" on such idealist notions, and therefore net outside money would favour a "yes" vote.
End note 2: Often enough, outside interests act in ways that do not make sense for the people they are trying to persuade/correct. I cite the example of the ACLU litigation against a school, or the ad campaign against the canadian seal hunt (the later one being almost entirely funded by foreign interests and showed a sincere lack of knowledge about anything other than ready made statistics for the headlines).
End note 3: Prop 9 on election funding anyone?

 

My respect for him has gone up insurmountably Not just for the money, but for this statement. If more A-list celebrities show this kind of support, it's going to have a positive effect on a lot of people.

 

I'm voting, to my knowledge <_< >_> lol, So at least that's 1 more vote against Prop 8

 

Thats awesome!!

But i can't help thinking that Angelina is the driving force behind his decision, with her Bisexuality and all that. But either way, thats fantastic, the more high profile celebs we have on our side, the better our chance of keeping our rights should be.

I'm glad, really glad, that this has happened, its defiantely a positive sign in my books.

 

Woo! That is awesome! It's nice to know that there are celebrities out there who respect us, and who can be vocal about it.

I've always liked Brangelina

 

Hmm.. maybe he does deserve Angelina after all

 

That's fantastic! It's silly in a way, but a lot of people are heavily influenced by the views and actions of celebrities. I hope this sways a few people back to our side!

 

Woot, Go Brad Pitt. That is awesome.

 

Yay! Brad Pitt rocks

Now let's see if the influence manages to filter down to the Aussie government..
