This post will appear on my wall several times till May 8th 2012. It is aimed at friends and family from North Carolina and friends who have family and/or friends in North Carolina. The link below describes something on the North Carolina Ballot that should never have been put on it to begin with, but now that it's on there it needs to be resoundingly defeated by the general populace.
http://www.ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/North_Carolina_Same-Sex_Marriage_Amendment_(2012)
This measure can only be considered evil because it represents the smallness of a small group of people, most of them conservative Republicans. They are of the opinion that their blood is somehow redder than those of the ones they wish to hurt with this amendment. What they are trying to do is alter the North Carolina constitution, to restrict marriage to be between a man an a woman, which doesn't just hurt the LGBT community but it hurts all those people in loving relationships that do not fit into the mold of a man and woman being married. It is wrong, wrong, wrong, to want to put into a state constitution a restriction on personal freedoms. If they do, it is a slippery slope. What's to stop them from banning Jews from North Carolina Or Muslims, or Buddhists? Where would the line be drawn once this happens if it's allowed to be passed. Below is a link to an organization that is trying to et the word out, to kill this amendment.

Fingers crossed this joke of an amendment fails! The amount of hate from the "Christian Right" is sickening, especially towards the LGBT community. They really need to be challenged over their lies.
