When that which is undeniably right, is reduced to merely an ingredient in what is politically gainful, we are all condemned to partake of a meal that is repugnantly bitter. Over 60% of California voters stated by ballot that gay marriage must be banned. If we are truly a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, why is it that our decisions are usurped. This has happened in the past, particularly #187, and the results have been economically devastating. The opinions of the American people, stated by majority ballot, should never be overruled, and an initiative should be started and passed to make certain that future disrespectful antics of this nature are thwarted.
