is there any state where the residents of that state have actually voted FOR gay marriage? Seems like everywhere I can think of it's been a court decision, not resident decision.

The Washington State legislature passed a gay marriage law. Sort of like the people voting on it. Since our local bigots have fielded a petition to revoke the law it won't be allowed to go into effect until after the elections this fall. So we will be voting on it.

But all of that is beside the point: You don't get to vote on my civil rights. Or you shouldn't, to be more accurate. Apparently in the Land of the Free you get to vote on other people's sex lives. There is nowhere this should be decided except in the courts. It's a Constitutional issue, not a school levy.

Interestingly, one of the big bigots here is the Seattle Catholic Cardinal, the same one who is "investigating" the American nuns for the Vatican. He is encouraging all Catholic churches to put the anti-gay initiative petitions out for people to sign when they come to Mass. Parishioners can get their love and their hate with one stop shopping. Thankfully, three local churches, including the big cathedral, refused to engage in his hateful, sexually perverted politics.
