    What?: A No On 8 Event
    Why?: Because it's the 3rd and we ALL deserve to get married
    When?: November 3rd, 2008; all day
    Where?: EVERYWHERE(especially in CA)
    URL?: Facebook Event

    On November 3rd, members of the Church of Latter Day Saints will be fasting to show their support for Proposition 8. I think it's only natural that people who oppose it should show their opposition by eating a lot of delicious food that day. So, please make, hand out, and consume massive quantities of food, especially baked goods.


    Basically, Mormons aren't eating so we're bringing food where ever we are. Nommy.

    LOL! I love the idea. Maybe you guys should cook things like "Prop 8 Bavarian" and eat it in front of the mormons. XD

    Good luck to all Californians!
     
  4. Even though I don't live in California, I'm still going to consume massive quantities of food! I <3 food! I shall make cookies on Sunday and eat copius amounts of them on Monday! Possibly bring a large lunch to school! Who knows!

    im making cookies and icing them with no on 8 slogans. i might have a watch movies and make food party.

    anything for the cause. :wink:

    when i was first told about it, a mormon girl was standing behind me (THEYRE EVERYWHERE AT MY SCHOOL), and i didnt know until i had called my friend and told him about it. she told me that she was offended that i was doing that, so i told her that i was offended that she wanted to take civil rights away from thousands, including myself. she just looked at me and blinked.

    ROFL! Nice. Just one small mistake.. There's approximately 6.2 MILLION LGBT people in California. A little bit more than thousands. ;P
     
  7. ^ Umm I think it's actually like 1.3 million...

    But also, the link appears to be broken :frowning2: It won't work for me.

    That would mean that there'd be more gays in Australia than California..

    Approx. 17% of Americans are gay (equal with Australia for the highest % in the world! XD) and there's like 30-something million people in California.

    The number of same-sex COUPLES would probably be a lot lower.

    theres a huge ass mormon church in livermore. and i mean huge. they all have seminary so they come to school at once. we call it the mormon parade. it scares me.


    i totally thought it was 15%! urg. WIKIPEDIA LIIIIIEEEEESSSSS!!!!!

    but it would be taking the right away from all of us, therefore, over a million.

    I was driving home this morning and I passed a police station. Outside the police station and on the other side of the street there were people with No on Prop 102 (The equivalent in Arizona). I was really excited.

    I'm also going to consume a lot of food on the third.
