Live: protest outside LA Temple
go to CNN and click on the banner link to watch the demonstration live.
Press conference for LA Gay/Lesbian center now has turned into a demonstration.

Yikes, that looks like it has closed down Santa Monica blvd.
Glad I am working from OC today. Traffic on the west side will be a nightmare.....or more than usual tonight.

You heard it here first. Prop. 8 will be a costly win for the LDS Church.

Because the church has just earned itself a reputation for standing against gays. Even straight people would prefer not to be associated with groups that are perceived as bigots.

The elite, the powerful, the rich, the intelligentcia, are on the side of the gays. The folks that joined the LDS church--anmolously--in making the difference in the vote are themselves society's downtrodden and in many cases victims. The victims turned abusers. They can't and won't do anything for the LDS Church. The LDS Church's new enemies will stop at nothing now to destroy its image, its goodwill, and they are in a position to do it. They will be brutal, ingracious, and smart. It's the 1970's redux.

You have no idea what you're in for. The whole sordid history of the priesthood ban, etc., will be resurrected. It's a natural.
