How did Proposition 8 manage to pass? And in California of all places!
Even though a lot of monetary support came from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, citizens of California cast the votes. What was it? Apathy?
"In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;
And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;
And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;
And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
Martin Niemöller
One last thought: What would Jesus do?
