Turnabout Is Fair Play
11 15 2008After years of threatening abortion providers, boycotting companies that provide domestic partner benefits, protesting children’s shows with imagined subversive content (Teletubbies), disrupting military funerals, and proclaiming the wrath of God against anyone who votes contrary to their beliefs, why are some conservative Christian groups so surprised and offended when same-sex-marriage proponents start using the same techniques against the biggest Prop 8 supporters? Especially when Prop 8 stripped many of them of some of their civil rights? (And please don’t claim that Prop 8 wasn’t about removing a right from a class of people; before Prop 8 passed they could get married; now they can’t. If that isn’t the removal of a right, what is?)
