Anti-marriage bullying = 'epitome of intolerance'
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 12/12/2008 7:00:00 AM


Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) is vowing to support anyone intimidated for their support of Proposition 8, California's recently approved constitutional amendment protecting traditional marriage.

The Institute is offering the assistance in the wake of threats to the safety and livelihoods of people and groups that voted for the amendment or contributed to it. Founder Brad Dacus cites a San Francisco client's case.

"She was fired from her job simply and solely because it was disclosed that she gave a financial contribution to support Proposition 8," Dacus states.

Several other cases have come to his firm's attention involving the same circumstance, details of which cannot be discussed pending confidential settlement negotiations. But according to the attorney, "tactics of fear and intimidation" have been employed against individuals, businesses, and churches that supported the ballot measure -- and he finds that completely unacceptable.

"This is the epitome of intolerance," Dacus asserts. "The ability for the opposition to succeed in intimidating and costing people their jobs because of their political expression is a serious, serious threat to the ability for democracy to survive in this country, and we cannot allow this to go unchecked."

PJI says it will investigate reports of "threats and bullying" surrounding the election outcome to ensure the democratic process is not undermined.

On November 4, California voters approved Prop. 8 by a 52 percent to 48 percent margin.

1. it is always -- and only -- about projection, for the rightwing nutcakes...

6. Precisely. Everything begins with one's self, so if "marriage needs defense" it's because

people doubt their own marriages.

If they're worried about their kids becoming gay, it's because they are unsure about their own model of heterosexuality.

Short of direct attack, ascribing offensive behavior to others can also be an echo of one's own desire to dominate.

2. One last time...

My life is not open to political expression. Period.

3. Fundies: people who get people fired for using the 'N word' are intolerant too.

Also people who fire people for being gay. Oh, shit! Wait, that's us. Nevermind, strike that last one.

4. Let me guess, this Dacus motherfucker thinks firing someone just for being gay is

perfectly okay.
:grr:

5. Ahh. I see. Intolerant of the intolerant religious political sexual social psycho viewpoints.

It's brilliant. Like an enigma wrapped in a question wrapped in a soft shell corn tortilla.

7. We had a neighbor who believed Nazis were a persecuted

minority.
He was prety sociopathic, and spent nearly half his life since age 12 in various institutions, then came home to live with mommy.

I'm happy they moved - I was making serious plans to kill him.

8. Clue phone for fundies!

Nobody likes a bunch of narrow, nasty, humorless religious bigots who gleefully send everybody to hell except themselves.
