What a week! Watching the Proposition 8 votes come in the night and the following morning after the election gave me a sinking feeling in my stomach. I couldn't believe that a state as progressive as California would choose to support a discriminatory amendment to the constitution. Yesterday, despite how down I felt, I went with a couple of friends to San Francisco to protest the passing of Proposition 8. It was my first time being in a protest environment and I had a total blast. In the middle of the march, we even made a liquor stop at The Cafe in the Castro district before rejoining the march all the way back to Van Ness Avenue. Fun Times!

SF March Against Proposition 8
