And you sound like Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton screaming that African American defendants should always be put on trial before an African American judge and a jury made exclusively of African Americans.

Again, false logic. Being gay is a behavior, not a race. This current trial is specifically about whether the legal definition of marriage should be changed to incorporate a particular behavior, but more importantly, the pro-gay side is trying to argue that Prop 8 was passed out of some ignorant bigotry on the part of the voters. That makes the case extremely vulnerable to ideological bias.

Your comparison to black people is asinine, but, if Jesse Jackson were demanding that a judge be recused from a racially charged case if that judge were a known member of the KKK, then Jackson's demand would be reasonable, and it would be an apt comparison to the prop 8 case.

“Being gay is a behavior...”

And are you planning to go before Federal Appeals Court and prove that theory in order to get Judge Walker tossed from the case?
