I think you're right. The gay community should get some of the blame, the "No" on 8 ads were terrible. A level of complacency has (had?) set in. Perhaps you're right that we should have embraced and hammered the Gay Rights rather than focusing on Human Rights...
How can we fight for 'Human Rights' when str8 people (...outside of
RR) don't even consider gays human?
I saw the parallel between Prop 6 and Prop 8 in the way it was handled. Policians wanted the issues to be 'Human Rights' and Harvey Milk wanted it to be a 'gay' issue.
...as stated before he was right. Prop 8 should have been a gay issue and yes, I'm pretty darn mad at the "openly gay politicians" (...and older gays too because they ALL should have seen this coming - they ALL lived thru this before.)
