Hard to imagine this happening in the Central Valley which is much more conservative than the SF Bay Area, especially with regards to the definition of marriage.
Are the hords of pacifist Repblicans paying attention — the “higher road” segment of the right?
This heterobashing has to stop from the gaystapo brownshirts.
Where is the media to denounce this hate crime?
Hello???
I agree. I thought the attack occurred here in Sta Monica/West Hollywood but Modesto? Isolated incident. Go 8!
I wish he would have said who he’s voting for.
IMO, if the Muslim Messiah gets elected, we’re all fair game.
They have not beaten me up, but I did get a dose of eggs and tomatoes here in So. Pasadena for my “yes on 8” signs. Intimidation will be a hallmark of the Obama administration.
If that is true, I’m glad we are the ones armed.
Typical intolerant, judgmental, hate-filled, heterophobe.
That does it! This guy is a real hero. Took a beating for the cause. What a man.
Hang in there. I live 3 blocks away from “The Village”, a GLAAD bastion here in L.A. and gays here are more militant.
You know, I have looked for this news all over the place but every report comes down to a PR report by an anti-Abortion organization. I have not been able to find this report anywhere else at all. No news stations, no papers, no wire service reports.
Now, I don’t outright doubt the attacks, mind you. But I don’t believe ANY report that I have only ONE source for.
Intimidation of a voter is criminal in the FEC laws, carrying the potential of fines and jail time. Report the incident.
this turned out to be a bad year not to have a Republican on the top of the ticket....
Are these the kind of people you want in our government?
Thanks for the link. That one is new as I was looking for this last night and couldn’t find anything else. Glad it has shown up elsewhere.
Thanks
