Proposition 8 Opponents Are Getting Violent
No matter what one thinks of Proposition 8, it is quite difficult for the gay rights movement to claim to be following in Martin Luther King Jr.'s steps when you see this happening, as told by Churck Norris:
Protestors of Proposition 8 in California (the marriage amendment) shoved aside a 69-year-old woman who was bearing a cross. They reportedly spit on her and stomped on her cross. They then aligned themselves in a human barricade, blocking the media from getting to or interviewing the woman.
Prop. 8 supporter Jose Nunez, 37, was assaulted brutally while distributing yard signs to other supporters after church services at the St. Stanislaus Parish in Modesto...
A pro-homosexual, pro-anarchy organization named Bash Pack marched into the middle of a church service and flung fliers and condoms to the congregants. They also hung a banner from the balcony that featured two lesbians in provocative positions at the pulpit.
It's quite ironic, actually. This past Sunday the message in my church bulletin urged us to be thankful that we live in a peaceful country, and that unlike Christians in unstable countries, we never have to worry about our church being fire bombed at any time.
Well, considering these reports and others about churches being vandalized, it turns out that the anti-Proposition 8 movement is forcing us to worry after all.
At least Chuck Norris is on it.

"Protestors [sic] of Proposition 8 in California (the marriage amendment) shoved aside a 69-year-old woman who was bearing a cross. They reportedly spit on her and stomped on her cross. They then aligned themselves in a human barricade, blocking the media from getting to or interviewing the woman."
Only the first sentence of that is factually true. Meanwhile, at a protest last week at the Mormon Church, one man was punched in the face by a Yes on 8 supporter and three other women were hit by Mormon supporters. Violence is uncool, no matter where it comes from, but Prop 8. supporters have been as violent, if not more so.
"Letters containing white powder (obviously mimicking anthrax) were sent to the Salt Lake City headquarters of the Mormon church and to a temple in Los Angeles. (Thankfully, the FBI said the substance was nontoxic.) "
Unless the Texas Ranger has a hot line to the FBI, he's jumping the gun on this. The FBI investigation is still ongoing and nobody knows who sent the envelope. Some have suggested that, like a similar case involving Scientology, the envelopes may have been sent by someone within the church.
