---Well they are doing it the right way.---
What do you mean? The people voted overwhelmingly against gay marriage a few years back in a referendum. The legislature is spitting in their eye!
America is not a democracy, 80%-90% opposed interracial marriage 45 years ago, and 35% still do, it was decided by the legislatures (coincidently this is something the opposition was complaining about, then when it happens it has to be done by the people, not everything deserves to be an initiative.
This is a state issue, if the voters of california disagree, the democrats will have to answer to them, and will be run out of office.
