The Mormons aren’t being attacked for their faith, they’re being attacked because they gave monetary support (in huge amounts) to Prop. 8. It’s political, not religious.

But it’s still obviously the gay protesters here who are acting all persecuted.

This really is for everyone:

First let’s clarify: as of 2006 there were 761,716 Mormons in California (5.5 million total in the US) and over 54 million people voted yes on this. Secondly, No against prop 8 raised more money by the end than did Yes on prop 8 according to the San Jose Mercury News, including six figure donations from several celebrities and the co-founders of Google.

So let’s do the math...hmmm doesn’t add up to me. But you know they have to blame someone...oh yes and lets be hateful about it. Calling a Mormon a bigot isn’t a hate crime, but calling a homosexual a fag is???
