The gay debate: Are we gonna black list people like the 1950s?!
In the LA Times this Sunday there was an article about the anger from the opponents of Prop 8–the proposition in California that banned marriage of same-sex couples. It seems that many in Hollywood are out to black list people who supported the ban. It feels a lot like what the 1950s was when anyone at all connected to someone connected to communism would be black listed from Hollywood. There was a witch hunt then and one being reported today. Beyond the actual disagreements which have to do with traditional values of what marriage is, this concerns me for people of any opinion on Prop 8 or the idea of gay marriage. From the LA Times.
