Prop 8

I am proud of my country, but I am ashamed of California.

Don forget Florida, Arizona & Arkansas.

According to the Human Rights Campaign "anti-LGBT marriage bans passed in Florida and Arizona, and in Arkansas voters voted to bar all unmarried people, LGBT or straight, from adopting children or serving as foster parents."

It's frustrating to realize how far we still have to go in the fight for a truly free country.

Indeed. As excited as I was to witness Obama's victory, the pundits' saccharine musings on America truly living up to its promise of equality seemed all too ironic with propositions like 8 in California passing.
