Gay demonstrations all over the country continued over the weekend, according to news reports. In Southern California, protestors demonstrated at Mormon temples in Westwood and Newport Beach, some carrying signs urging a "no" vote on Proposition 8. Presumably, those sign-carriers weren't aware that the people have already voted on Proposition 8. It makes you wonder. Are these people who don't have anything else to do?
Legal challenges to Proposition 8 have been filed and that process likely will continue until there has been a final resolution, perhaps in the highest court of the land. But what is the point of the demonstrations? Are the demonstrators trying to show what fine, reasonable people gays are? If so, they're failing. The television and newspaper pictures do not portray the demonstrators in a good light. The demonstrators look angry, undisciplined, unkempt and rude. It's hardly a way to win friends and influence people.
