Monday November 10, 2008Video Shows Gay 'Marriage' Backers Terrorizing Cross-Carrying Elderly Woman and Reporter
By Kathleen Gilbert PALM SPRINGS, Florida, November 10, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Video footage from KPSP CBS 2 Palm Spring News shows Proposition 8 protesters surrounding an elderly woman and the reporter trying to interview her, shouting and blocking the camera's view of the woman, ultimately forcing the two to flee from the encircling crowd.
When reporter Kimberly Chang attempted to interview Burgess shortly thereafter, she grew visibly upset as dozens of protesters encircled the pair and shouted them down while blocking the camera with their signs, rendering the interview impossible. "As you can see right now, we are being a little attacked here," Chang said. Burgess then told Chang she thought they needed to call the police.
The journalist attempted to continue her story by yelling over the crowd, at which point the protesters erupted in noise, drowning her out. (To see the KPSP CBS 2 footage, go to: http://gatorgop.blogspot.com/2008/11/crazy-lefties-attack-old-lady-at-no-on.html) True marriage supporters, particularly religious groups, have felt the ire of same-sex "marriage" advocates ever since California's Proposition 8 was passed last Tuesday. Proposition 8 places the true definition of marriage in the state constitution. "In California, marriage advocates faced intimidation, vandalism, the ire of Hollywood stars and opposition from Internet moguls," said Valerie Mosher of Concerned Women for America in a statement Friday. However, "marriage proved more important to the voters than threats or approval from cultural elites."
Same-sex "marriage" advocates are now pursuing several lawsuits against Proposition 8 in an attempt to overturn the democratic process through the courts. This effort echoes the imposition of same-sex "marriage" by activist judges on the state earlier this year. The California Supreme Court decided to legalize same-sex “marriage” despite the fact that Californian citizens had resoundingly voted to protect true marriage in a 2000 referendum. By refusing to respect voters' opinion, says Mosher, "It would destroy trust in the judicial system. "In demanding that they get their way, homosexual activists are threatening public safety and the integrity of our system of government." See related LifeSiteNews.com coverage:

Those who practice homosexual sex are certainly a weird lot!
The anger itself is so irrational too. Before this came up, California ALREADY HAD a “civil partnership” law, which gave homosexuals more or less the same rights as married people. They can have a ceremony and call themselves married all they want...even if it’s to their cocker spaniel.
Why it is so important for them to force other to call them legally “married” is more than I can understand.
Demons in human form.
Tom Brokaw described this video as “a lot of hate on both sides”, I kid you not.
They want to force the church to marry them and recognize the marriage as spiritually good, in defiance of God's stance on the matter.
Not Brokaw, the local imbecile.
I don’t think that was Brokaw.
They are animals.
Tom Brokaw is an idiot.
Yes, I corrected it, I heard it wrong listening to Laura Ingraham, I thought she said it was Brokaw, it was the local idiot who sees ONE OLD WOMAN holding a cross, having it ripped out of her hands and stomped as “hate on both sides”.
It’s also pretty funny that when the voters chose Obama, we Republicans just sit around moping and whining about it, but not threatening or anything. After all, we lost. And the Obama supporters are talking about how the system finally worked and they won! Voting works...
But when the dims lose, they go postal about it. They want to challenge the will of the people; overthrow the will of the people with violence, threats, legal battles, etc. What happened to the system works, and voting works. I guess only when they win.
Sad sick freaks.
Aaaaah. If only that cross that was destroyed had been a koran instead. It would have been a VERY different outcome.
Horrible perverts.
It is part to shove it in our faces, those who don’t want them redefining marriage.
It is part that they want to redefine marriage in order to ultimately destroy marriage and what it means.
It is in part because they are unhappy, tormented people and will never be happy because they are perverted and their consciences bother them, and they cannot stand to hear anyone telling them they are wrong.
It is part because they demand that everyone must accept them and affirm them.
It is part that they are wicked people doing evil things, and forcing others to call their evil good, and getting others to punish those who oppose them by calling THEM evil, when in fact they are good.
Lots of headless perverts would be running around if they ripped up or stomped on a koran.
Wonder if govt would do anything. Muslim versus gay. we know they’d always side against Christians, but with two politically correct groups, it is infinitely tougher.
Did they mean Palm Springs CA? Why Florida?
Seek and ye shall find.
They want it all, and they want to change tradition and FORCE US to accept them. Because in their hearts they know they are perverted.
homosexual agenda ping

Phyllis Burgess, a supporter of true marriage, had been assaulted earlier as she displayed a large cross in front of the protesters. Video footage shows the anti-marriage crowd pushing Burgess, slapping the cross out of her hand and stomping on it as they surround her.
